Development Turing help (for school)

I have a question for my math game, suppositly after every level (10 questions) the # of digits for the quetsions are suppose to increase... like 8+6 would be level one and level 2 would be 88+66 and level 3 would be 888+666 etc..... how do i make the digits increase ( max number is 9 in level one, level 2 max number 99, level 3 max number 999) (these numbers are created at random.....)plz help

 

okay, i think i speak for everyone reading this when i say you've not told us what your doing.

Your making a game (what language)

Now every level the number of digits for the questions increase? so like question 15, would be level 2, question 5? 83 would be level 2 question 73?

whats going on with the number + number thing?

Start the begining. Turing is a very famous person, and there a quite a few challenges with his name attached, most famously making a computer appear to be human, so its not really very descriptive.

 

turing is the language......................................

there are 3 numbers (generated at random)
1 number is the first number of the question
the second number from 0-2 will determin if its addition, subtaction or multiply
the third number will be the second number of the question

so after running after the 3 lines of code and a few if statments there will be an equation

1+1, 2-1 , or 3X3

now thats level one

after 10 questions it will reach level 2
my question is how to make it from 1+1 or 2-1 etc to 11+11 or 21-20 after the completion of level 1 and when level 2 is done there should be 3 digits like 111+111 or 222-111 etc..... and so on as the levels increase like when the user reaches level 6, there should be 6 digits in the equation.... what i want to know is HOW to increase the digits
i

 

OK I've never heard of the Turing language but what is the code you are using to generate the random number because you should be able to do it from that.

 

randint (intRan1, 0, 9) %random number 1
randint (intRan2, 0, 9) %random number 2
randint (intRanSym, 0, 2) %determins the equation

 

Ok,
I too have never heard of "Turing" as a programming language, but I'm guessing the nub of the point here not so much the problem, but creating the series of numbers given a starting digit.

i.e
if your start number is 7, then it increases as a series: 77, then 777 etc.


So:

1. you need a string to hold the "current string number"
2. you need to remember the starting digit
3. you need a method to convert "current string number" to a proper numeric.

Doing a quick google for "Turing Programming Language" it says its an programming language designed to show OO techniques, so trying not to be to procedural, heres a pseudo-turing-class (cos I have literally spent no more than 5 minutes looking at this link

Code:

class MyNumber
{
     export Initialise, GetNumeric   
     
     var start_number : int
     var internal_number : int
     var stringnumber : string

     procedure Initialise
          number := randint (start_number, 0, 9)
     end SetNumeric

     procedure SetToLevel(level : int)
         var string_value : string
         for i : 1 .. level
              string_value := string_value + stringnumber; % is this string concatenation?
         end for

         internal_number := ConvertToInteger(string_value) % no idea what the function is!

     end SetToLevel

     procedure GetNumber
          result internal_number
     end GetNumber
}

So your program would be....

Code:

var number1 : MyNumber
var number2 : MyNumber
var operand  : MyOperand

var x, y : int

new number1
new number2
new operand

number1 -> Initialise
number2 -> Initialise
operand -> Initialise

for level := 1..10
     number1 ->SetLevel(level)
     number2 ->SetLevel(level)
     x := number1->GetNumber
     y := number1->GetNumber

     operand ->Calculate(x, y);

end for

Having written this much I'll let you sort out the other class "MyOperand" that is required - its not too difficult to figure out what's required... and I am not going to do all the work for you Added to that I I dont no the syntax or commands available.....

Good luck

 

Surely you can just do

randint (intRan1, 10, 99) and the same for intRan2
if you want to just create a two digit random number as it will only give you a number between 10 and 99. Or have I misunderstood. Does the two digit number need to be two of the same number e.g. 22 if the one digit number was 2?

 

it was suppose to increase digits after 10 questions of running.... READ the whole thread before posting haha
i got it working now thx for your help everyone

 

Spex,

You say you have finshed it - well done . Could you post your source? I for one am interested as to how you did it.

Given that this an uncommon programming language I'd love to know.

 

hey hepath ill pm you for my code i dont want to take the risk of someone in my class readinng my code and copy then i would be in **** >_> lol turing is a very very basic language haha

EDIT: umm turns out my code is too long to pm >_> haah how about e-mail? ill e-mail it to you (pm me with your e-mail if you really wana see it still haha but basically all i did was
intIncrease := ((intIncrease * 10) + 9)
