- Introduction
- ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
- This program is designed as an example of using the SUB and FUNCTION
- routines in HBASIC, along with the maths functions. The source is was
- created in version 1, but will compile in version 2 as is, and comes
- with a compiled TOS version. Even the source is explained in the file
- EXPLAIN.TXT!
-
- The idea of the game
- ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
-
- The main idea of the game is to correctly guess a number that the
- computer generates. The computer will tell you if the number you've
- chosen is above or below the generated one, and also how many turns
- you've had.
-
- Instructions
- ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
-
- The program starts with asking you for a random number gene. This is
- needed for the main game to random generate a number, so type in any
- number from the range specified.
-
- You start at turn 1. Every time you input a new number the number of
- turns increases. The computer asks you for a number. If the number you
- chose is above/below that of the generated one, it will tell you. The
- computer also tells you the range of what you've typed in too.
-
- If you want to quit, choose a number above 1000, since the generated
- number is always between 1 and 999.
-
- When/if you choose the right number the computer will ask you do you
- want another game. Pressing the 'y' key will start again, pressing 'n'
- will quit and anything else will be ignored.
