This time we return with a number game. It is quite simple, but entertaining, and we think it can be suitable for practicing basic operations. Also and as always, we will try to explain some parts of the program to you.

Let's make known the rules of the game:

  1. A numeric set of 1 to 25 will be displayed.
    2. The program will calculate the numeric value of an expression composed of four numbers and
    operators (+,–,*) of the following.
  2. You should get an expression that gives this value as a result. To
    do this you can use the operators (+,–,*) and 4 numbers of the set. Since
    there may be more than one statement that provides the same value, any of them will be considered
    good, even if not evaluated by the program.

Observations:

  • Numbers and operators cannot be repeated.
    • All agents must be used (+,–,*).
  • The evaluation of the declaration will not take into account the priority levels of the agents.
    They will be applied from left to right.
    E.g. 3 + 4 *2 = 14 and no 11

As you may have seen, the '/' operator has not been taken into account and

has been because the program randomly takes numbers and operators in formulating the expression and using '/' can make the divisions to be performed not complete, with decimal numbers. We didn't want to
complicate the game too much and that's why we found it better to leave it out.

The program is divided into the following parts.

    40-50: Store the numbers and symbols to use
    60: Define the positions of the 8 numbers of the set
    70-130: From 1 to 25 take 8 randomly
    140-260: Evaluate as statement 270-320
    emerges: Appearance of the presentation screen and user response
    330-510: Evaluate the declaration issued by the user
  • 520-600: Verification of response

Evaluate the declaration issued by the user

This expression (ERAN$) will be a string of characters for the program. Therefore, the black and white
spaces involved are also significant. Analyze the character string in characters, distinguishing
between themes (numeric strings) and agents (+,–,*) and simultaneously calculating the value
of the expression.

For this distinction it must be taken into account that in the
range of two themes there can be only agents or spaces ahead and behind the agent.
