Turing Need Help

Anonymous · Post by **Anonymous** » Mon Dec 20, 2004 5:09 pm

I'm taking comp.sci right now in highschool and am in desperate need of help. I came into this course late and was basically lost day one,second one. I don't even know the basics and am in risk of failing the course. So at this point every mark i get will count and the teacher gave an assignment where we need to create any game using what we learned in the class, loops,graphics,selection,external files and arays. I have no idea what to do and found this site as a last resort ,if anyone has an old game or anything thats not super complicated you'd be pretty much saving me from failing mark.
I know most you will be thinking I should do my own work but honestly I know pretty much nothing on turing and need help desperately.....

You mean on day2 the teacher wants students to write a game? Wow. I did a whole semister in visual basic and we did not even do a usable program yet.

There's a few people here that know turing so they should be around soon.

Ya. sorry for the delay. Been away for a bit

. I won't be able to give a game to you so that you can get credit for it. It's dishonest and unloyal. However, read the threads we have posted on turing and see what you can get out of them. If all else fails, make a multiple choice quiz with a few graphics. TECHNICALLY, it could be considered as a game. All you need to know is LOOPS, CONDITIONAL (IF THEN ELSE) STATEMENTS and VARIABLES, and INPUT. It shouldn't take that long to do, and you can throw in some graphics if necessary. To start off, just keep repeating things like this:

put "WHAT IS MR.SIMPSON'S LAST NAME?"
put ""
put "1) HOMER"
put "2) JASON"
put "3) CLAUDE"
get reply
if reply = "1" then
score := score + 1
else
end if

Something like that. Just give multiple choice and alternate questions. The rest writes itself.

lol. Like we're going to just give a program away. Tis the season to be joly, but it still has certain limits.

Did somebody say BANNED?

Didn't bother to block his IP (207.35.188.13) either.

More fun that way.

u'll also need elsif statements for when they guess the wrong number ..

i would not suggest using if, else statements for multiple choice! use case statements they are much cleaner and look WAY better for the syntax just refer to turing help, it will help ya grately and ur teach should give ya some good marks

and for some decent graphics try something like:

var x,y,col,count : int := 0

loop
randint (x,maxx,maxy)
randint (y,maxx,maxy)
randint (col, 1, 255)
count := count +1 % ALWAYS USE COUNTERS INSIDE OF LOOPS!!!!!!
drawdot (x,y,col)
delay (500)
exit when count > 1000 % change this number to desired length
end loop

that will give u a nice static/non-motiom/motion great for cls'ing the screen

well, for me, in visual basics, i made a blackjack game that worked ( a little of subject), and as for the end of the semester project, im almost in the same boat as you ( but im passing), its 4 days left for me as well, if you want ideas here are some of the projects my class is doing, tic-tac-toe, sos, hangman(the guy whos doing this has 2556 lines of programming, and needs to do that x20(holy crap)), a math problem giver, rock-paper-sissors,connect fourand im making a super lucky dice (from golden sun 2 mini game). hope you get an idea.
