- An ideal task for the beginner to learn a language on is a
- simulation game which is written around the computer that the
- beginner has available. For in that case, there is complete
- control of all inputs and outputs, This kind of game in which
- the player makes decisions based on the information available to
- him or her available at the time), can be made sufficiently
- sophisticated and complex so as to make writing it an adequate
- challenge for anybody.
-
- The techniques used in writing a good game are the same that
- programmers use in professional activities. Writing a good game
- poses a challenge that allows you to develop good habits and
- techniques for programming and also allows you to learn a
- language in an interesting manner. By taking an orderly approach
- to the game design, complex operations may be clearly understood
- and converted to computer code with the aid of a language
- reference manual, irrespective of the language being used.
-
- This product teaches the techniques for writing such a game using
- the STARTREK game as an example, and the BASIC language as the
- programming language in which to write the code.
-
- Upon receipt of your registration, you will receive a subsequent
- update, hard copy drawings of the non text figures, telephone and
- mail support.
-
- This product may not be sold or distributed with another product
- without the express written permission of the author.

- The SHAREWARE Concept
-
-
- HERE'S HOW SHAREWARE WORKS:
-
- The Association of Shareware Professionals (ASP) has established
- standards for its members and for any organization which has "ASP
- Approved" status. The ASP wants to make sure that the shareware
- principle works for you. If you are unable to resolve a problem
- with an ASP member or organization (other than technical
- support), the ASP may be able to help. Please write to
-
- The ASP Ombudsman, P.O. Box 5786, Bellevue, WA 98006, USA.
-
- You are encouraged to copy the floppy disk and share it freely
- with others. You have the luxury of trying out the product at
- your own pace and in the comfort of your own home or workplace.
-
- After you have used the material for a reasonable evaluation
- period (90 days), you should either discontinue use of the
- material or register your copy. Your support is important and
- greatly appreciated. With it, Shareware authors are encouraged
- to design and distribute new products. Without it, a great deal
- of high quality, low cost software will cease to be available.
-
- Why pay at all?
-
- * You receive support from the author.
- * You receive a CURRENT copy of the program.
- * Your input and ideas help shape future products.
- * A sense of pride and ownership in having honestly
- participated in the Shareware revolution.
- * You help to keep software prices down by supporting a
- distribution method which doesn't depend on expensive
- advertising campaigns.
-
- Be aware of the following restrictions, designed to protect the
- community of Shareware users and to prevent greedy people from
- taking unfair advantage of the trust, hard work and good will of
- Shareware authors.
-
- 1. No price or consideration may be charged for the material.
- However, a distribution cost may be charged for the cost of
- the diskettes, shipping and handling, not to exceed $6.
-
- 2. The files and programs on the disks may not be modified or
- deleted.
-
- 3. The material cannot be sold as part of some other more
- inclusive package.
-
- 4. The material cannot be "rented" or "leased" to others.
-
- 5. The end user must be told clearly in writing on the outside
- of the package and in all advertising that the diskette(s)
- are "Shareware."
-
- 6. The package must contain a written explanation that the
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- The SHAREWARE Concept
-
-
- disk is for evaluation purposes, and that an additional
- "registration fee" is expected by the author, if the
- material is used beyond an initial evaluation period.
-
- 7. In the case of distribution via any telecommunications link,
- the following must be done:
-
