CONTENTS OF VOLUME 16 I am continuely being surprised by the diverse donations that are submitted by our members. This disk varies from a Cancer Research Professor in Hawaii to a Coast Guard Officer in Oregon. Don't get me wrong, I love it. Here's hoping you will too. 1. James Bearden, of Hawaii, had to really work at contacting us. His North Star would not run our disks so he had to modem them to a local member, who then modemed them to a 8" friend, who in turn gave them to me. So James was certainly serious about his donation. ARTIL.DOC This is a simulation of an artillery battle ARTIL/Z.COM between two players--the source is in ARTIL/Z.PAS Pascal/M and Pascal/Z.Besides being a ARTIL/M.PAS computer game for two people(unlike most available, which are for one person against the computer)and the kind of game which requires more thought than luck(usually) it shows some programming techniques that may be useful. A comparsion between Z and M is always interesting also. SAMPLE.DOC If you like to compare speed records for SAMPLE/C.BAS your software and/or hardware agaist other SAMPLE/C.C people's, here are two more in six different SAMPLE/C.COM languages. SAMPLE/M.PAS SAMPLE/N.BAS SAMPLE/S.BAS SAMPLE/S.COM SAMPLE/Z.COM SAMPLE/Z.PAS GOTOXY.PSP Translations of two of the console-control CONACT.PSP procedures from Pascal/M and UCSD.Used on CONSOLE.DOC the Micro-Term ACT-IV. Duplicates functions of GOTOXY and CONACT. RANDON.PSP Taken from PROGRAMMING IN PASCAL, by Peter Grogono, pp. 117-119,with "Modulus" reduced to "Maxint" to accommodate Pascal/Z limits. Returns a pseudo-random number between 0 and 1.0, inclusive, and should generate "Maxint" (32767) such numbers before repeating itself. CALENDAR.DOC Some more calenders but nice to have anyway. PINUP82.CAL SNOOPY82.CAL 2. Rex Buddenberg, of the Coast Guard, teaches and he found a good use for these programs in school. SIGHTRED.DOC This program contains the formulae for SIGHTRED.COM performing the spherical triangle SIGHTRED.PAS calculations associated with celestial naviagation. It has practical value. SORT.DOC Rex modified the NAD-3 program to suit SORT.PAS a Coast Guard Radio Room need. An interest- SRTPRT.PAS ing application and one everyone should look at just out of curosity. TED.COM Rex sez he uses this simple Editor all the TED.DOC time, its Public Domain and it you don't have any, this will do since the price is right. 3. Those two almost filled a disk by themselves. The following program is a filler, but has something to offer. CHECKLN.PAS For those who are building modules for CHECKLN.COM acoounting packages, this can be a good seed. It will take a dollar figure and print out its equivilant in text. I would say it could end up as a check writing component.
