- This program is usefull in drilling children in math computations such as
- addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
-
- The set of equations are defined by the user (or parent) within a text file.
- Each line of text is an equation in the form of:
- 1st_operand operation 2nd_operand=answer
-
- There should not be any imbedded blanks within the lines.
-
- Valid operations are: + (addition), - (subtraction),
- / (division), * (multiplication)
-
- Negative operands are allowed, but no compound equations.
-
- The following command will demonstrate how to setup an equation file:
-
- A>COPY CON: DATA <CR>
- 2+4=6<CR>
- 45/5=9<CR>
- 111+45=156<CR>
- <F6><CR>
-
- The following would be the command used to start the program running assuming
- the "MATH.EXE" program file in on a diskette in drive A.
