¢Number Buster¢=============¢¢By Simon Roe¢¢¢On the disk you will find:¢¢ NUMBUST.DOC - the text file you're now reading.¢¢ NUMBUST.COM - Execute this file using DOS option 'L', a menu, or rename it to AUTORUN.SYS. This will then load and run the next file (AUTORUN.CTB).¢¢ AUTORUN.CTB - The compiled version of NUMBER BUSTER.¢¢ NUMBUST.FNT - This contains the font details for redefining the characters.¢¢¢ This program was written in Turbo BASIC (which is available from many PD Libraries). The program supplied is a compiled version of the game, so needs the NUMBUST.COM file to be able to execute it.¢¢¢¢Instructions¢------------¢¢ The aim of the game is to complete the calculation by inserting different operators (+ * - /) into the spaces to provide the correct answer.¢¢ Pressing the RETURN key will calculate the sum for you and if it's correct then you carry onto the next one. If it is wrong then you carry on, but be quick because you only have 2 minutes in which to complete the calculation.¢¢ When you get one correct then you are awarded the number of seconds left as points, and you get one more bonus mark. Once you get five bonus marks you have the oppurtunity of getting a bonus.¢¢ When a number is in inverse, it means that the figure is negative.¢¢ Pressing the OPTION key will pause the game (to allow you to think longer perhaps!!!).¢¢¢Full source code of the program (in¢Turbo BASIC) will be made available¢in the NOSAUG PD library.¢
