- An Educational program aimed at the kids but depending on what age
- you tell the computer you are depends on the difficulty level.
-
- Level 1
- Is selected if the age is less than 5.
-
- All sums are randomly generated, but only addition and
- subtraction are used on this level. If the current sum
- ia a subtraction then the program ensures the first number
- will always be bigger than the second number, thereby
- ensuring no negative answers. Numbers generated do not
- exceed 5.
-
- Level 2
- Is selected if the age is between 5 and 8.
-
- As level 1, again only addition and subtraction are used,
- but the numbers randomly generated are between 5 & 10.
-
-
- Level 3
- Is selected if the age is between 9 and 12.
-
- All 4 sums + addition, - subtraction, * multiplication and
- / division are used on the rest of the levels.
-
- When the program selects a division, it ensures it will
- only use numbers that divide without any remainders.
-
- Numbers used on this level are between 10 and 50.
-
- Level 4
- Is selected if the age is between 13 and 15.
-
- Numbers used on this level are between 10 and 100.
-
- Level 5
- Is selected if the age is 16 and over.
-
- Numbers used on this level are between 10 and 1000.
