Plain Vanilla Math Drills Manual
by Anthony Gottsponer
Math drills are selected from multi level menus one menu for math type.
All input is done by hot keys Enter is not used except as noted below.
The "Enter" key is not used except in the "Expert mode".
All answers for addition, subtraction, and multiplication are prompted and
input right to left. Division is input left to right.
The program will show the user his answer and ask if it is right. Before
this happens you may backspace to correct a digit or two. At this prompt
called "Verify" you can reenter your answer. You may also enter a "V" to
turn this feature off.
You then are asked if you want another, if you want to work another
problem of the same type you were just working answer "Y", any other
answer will reload the last menu you were working from. A "V" will
turn the "Verify" back on.
From the menus you may select the problem type by entering a number from
1 to 9, or you may activate several features.
"H" help will display instructions for this program.
"K" will allow you to set your colors for foreground and background.
(Yes I know color begins with a "C" but since "color" is a
reserved word in the source code i had to fudge a little.)
"E" Expert mode for addition, subtraction, and multiplication. The
program will not drop out when you answer length is reached, you
have to hit "Enter" for your answer to be recognized, (except if
you go beyond the maximum number of allowable digits.)
The "Verify is turned off during the Expert mode.
"A" Will jump you to the Addition Menu
"D" Will jump you to the Division Menu
"S" Will jump you to the Subtraction Menu
"M" Will jump you to the Main Menu
"T" Will jump you to the mulTiplaction Menu
The program will only accepts the above numbers or letters at the prompts.
It will only accept numbers during the problem solving mode.
Any other key strokes result in "Zilch", all correct keystrokes are
echoed to the screen.
Have fun.
