Re: File handling and Case study....
Our prof said that we must save the data in notepad He/she probably meant to save the data in a file that NOTEPAD can OPEN, since there is no such concept as "save the data in notepad". Here is a routine that creates a simple 2-line file that NOTEPAD can OPEN: OPEN "MyStuff.txt"...

Their should be a simpler way, I think. When you only want to rotate in angles that are multiplies of 90 degrees Yes! It would be incredibly inefficient to use rotation via angles when all you want to do is reverse bits. as Codemss demo aludes, you take bits a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o and simply...

Well, your print example was strange, but here is a simple example of moving two missiles at once while prompting the user for input:

Well, I think you need to try harder.
Explain what problem you are trying to solve.
What kind of game are you working on?

Re: Slow fixed point math
Am I doing something wrong? Well, Ruby, I kept waiting for someone to answer your question so I could finally see what you're talking about. I can't even understand the question. The program below will clearly illustrate that fixed is better than float. But you do not have a clean comparison. You a...

Hmm... Maybe this thread should be moved to the General board, seeing how it's not a QB/FB question as this the forum is intended for. Mac, which do like most; COBOL, VB or QBASIC? According to Pete, this forum is for all languages. The general board is probably intended for non-programming issues....

Bye to this thread
History of this thread: 1) FB Question 2) I, thinking this was a QBasic Forum, gave the OP the URL of the FB forum, thinking to do the OP a favor. Why clutter a QBasic forum with FB posts? I then, not trying to recruit, posted a reference to www.qbasic.com, in case Pete's QBasic Forum was now Pete's...
