Programmable calculators were not allowed in any of my classes (2000s in europe), I would have loved that.

On the other side, I was programming small applications to cheat on my phone.

Latin was a mandatory class in my computer science oriented course of study (I know, completely bonkers) and 3G data was expensive so I wrote some scripts and scraped every possible latin text and translation I could find online and built a J2ME application (horrible platform, but hey, it works) to lookup text.

I still remember my friend getting pinched using the application because he translated an extra phrase which was not in the assignment but was in the source on the internet. Good times
