ALAN MACDONALD, of the Isle of Lewis, has put thought into his programming. 'Rather than write a one off quiz program', he wondered, 'why not do one that can be altered to whatever subject you want?' And so Brainbox was born. It's a geography test, but changing it to cover another area is easy - full details below. To take a test, just run the program. At the end the program tells you how well you did.When Mike Roake isn't busy at the United Mission to Kathmandu (honest!) he likes to relax by practising the guitar. In order to train his ear better he wrote this little program, which could well prove more useful than the average TypeIn. To use it, just enter whether you're a right or left-handed guitarist. The program then plays tones and displays the fingering chord for that tone: you have to enter what you think it is, ie A, B#, F or whatever. Note that the other keys are disabled, so any mistakes are yours! AA |
