Greetings, all. My Computer Science professor wants to see a Rock-Paper-Scissors program. What's more, he wants it in Pascal. (Ergh.) Does anyone have ascii that's less that a DOS-screen high of rock-paper-scissors for my program? I'd be glad to give credit where it's due... -Dustin Long dlo...@-null.net dlo...@-tamu.edu Plz notify by email, as well; I don't check the groups as religiously as I ought. (Replace the -@- with a plain old @.)

I call the game Paper, Scissors & Stone.... Strange how different people can have different names for things innit? -- ||||| | | Martin Atkins ( O O ) (mga) | > | | \_/ | mar...@bigfoot.com \___/ ___| |____ / \_/ \ ASCII ART GALLERY: http://vibes.vossnet.co.uk/i/ighaig/asciiart.htm
These scissors I snagged look like they'll do the trick, along with some
text generated by figlet... I like llizard's "Paper" too. Somehow,
though, I just can't see a diamond ring smashing a pair of scissors.
Anyone who wants to try their hand at an ascii-boulder or ascii stone?
Natch, these should be viewed white-on-black (or green-on-black) since
the game will (hopefully) run as a DOS-executable.
Here's what I've got so far:

Umm, at the risk of starting yet another ridiculous argument, Phosphor, in this huge world of newsgroups, why are you bothering to hang around in one that is devoted to this unwieldy artform? / .-. /^ .o | | /^ /=="\ //^ /\ '-/^ ejm 97 /_/____/^ _/^^ ^^^ ^ Dustin, the above is as close as I've come to doing a rock.
