Hey, im new to the forum.. im in a grade 10 comp sci class and i, as of now use turing 6.5 or 7.0 and i noticed a lot of the commands are different from the previous versions(eg. Draw.Line = drawline ) .. this is now causing me to have problems with things like Input.KeyDown ... the other commands weren't so hard to use because they were pretty much a straightforward translation but i cant seem to find the command for this. also (KEY_UP_ARROW) is undeclared in the program... also the line "var chars : array char of boolean" dosnt work because "char" is undeclared... can anyone help me find the commands for these or translate the tutorial code or something? anything would help. thanks! http://www.compsci.ca/v2/viewtopic.php?t=114 this is the tutorial ive been working with. |

To clarify, you're using the very old version of DOS Turing (it looks like a black screen, right?). That went up to version 8 or so, before being scrapped for WinOOT - Windows Object Oriented Turing, it looks like screenshots we have in this tutorial, and that's what we use and refer to as Turing. Version 4.0.5 is the recommended one, but I've heard that 4.1 was recently released. Expect that most features will simply not work for you. The distribution licenses are usually handled by school-boards, but could be on a school-wide level as well. I would strongly encourage you to look into having your school upgrade from a decade old compiler. |
