- This is a simple program, compiled in ASIC, which quizzes
- children on simple addition and subtraction; It is like a
- math drill and is useful for kindergarten thru first grade.
-
- I wrote this program to help in my mother's first grade class.
- To execute the program, simply type MATHBOAT from the
- command prompt. After the title screen appears, press any key
- to see the menu. You can choose to work addition, subtraction,
- or mixture(random). Press the number of your choice. When the
- problems appear on the screen you only need to type the number
- of the correct answer. If you answer correctly, your sailing
- boat will be advanced toward the island. Incorrect answers will
- cause the rain cloud to advance instead. If your boat reaches
- the island, you WIN. If the rain cloud arrives first, you lose.
