- CONTENTS OF VOLUME 16
-
- I am continuely being surprised by the diverse donations that
- are submitted by our members. This disk varies from a Cancer
- Research Professor in Hawaii to a Coast Guard Officer in Oregon.
- Don't get me wrong, I love it. Here's hoping you will too.
-
- 1. James Bearden, of Hawaii, had to really work at contacting
- us. His North Star would not run our disks so he had to
- modem them to a local member, who then modemed them to a 8"
- friend, who in turn gave them to me. So James was certainly
- serious about his donation.
-
- ARTIL.DOC This is a simulation of an artillery battle
- ARTIL/Z.COM between two players--the source is in
- ARTIL/Z.PAS Pascal/M and Pascal/Z.Besides being a
- ARTIL/M.PAS computer game for two people(unlike most
- available, which are for one person against
- the computer)and the kind of game which
- requires more thought than luck(usually)
- it shows some programming techniques that
- may be useful. A comparsion between Z and
- M is always interesting also.
-
- SAMPLE.DOC If you like to compare speed records for
- SAMPLE/C.BAS your software and/or hardware agaist other
- SAMPLE/C.C people's, here are two more in six different
- SAMPLE/C.COM languages.
- SAMPLE/M.PAS
- SAMPLE/N.BAS
- SAMPLE/S.BAS
- SAMPLE/S.COM
- SAMPLE/Z.COM
- SAMPLE/Z.PAS
-
- GOTOXY.PSP Translations of two of the console-control
- CONACT.PSP procedures from Pascal/M and UCSD.Used on
- CONSOLE.DOC the Micro-Term ACT-IV. Duplicates functions
- of GOTOXY and CONACT.
-
- RANDON.PSP Taken from PROGRAMMING IN PASCAL, by Peter
- Grogono, pp. 117-119,with "Modulus" reduced
- to "Maxint" to accommodate Pascal/Z limits.
- Returns a pseudo-random number between 0 and
- 1.0, inclusive, and should generate "Maxint"
- (32767) such numbers before repeating itself.
-
- CALENDAR.DOC Some more calenders but nice to have anyway.
- PINUP82.CAL
- SNOOPY82.CAL
-
- 2. Rex Buddenberg, of the Coast Guard, teaches and he
- found a good use for these programs in school.
-
- SIGHTRED.DOC This program contains the formulae for
- SIGHTRED.COM performing the spherical triangle
- SIGHTRED.PAS calculations associated with celestial
- naviagation. It has practical value.
-
- SORT.DOC Rex modified the NAD-3 program to suit
- SORT.PAS a Coast Guard Radio Room need. An interest-
- SRTPRT.PAS ing application and one everyone should
- look at just out of curosity.
-
- TED.COM Rex sez he uses this simple Editor all the
- TED.DOC time, its Public Domain and it you don't
- have any, this will do since the price is
- right.
-
- 3. Those two almost filled a disk by themselves. The following
- program is a filler, but has something to offer.
-
- CHECKLN.PAS For those who are building modules for
- CHECKLN.COM acoounting packages, this can be a good
- seed. It will take a dollar figure and
- print out its equivilant in text. I would
- say it could end up as a check writing
- component.
