HEY!

ok so i have this assignemnt to do and this si what I have to do:
Write a program which quizzes the user on the capitals of the provinces of Canada. Give the user three chances at each. Inform the user if they guessed correctly or incorrectly.
I also am putting a map of Canada as the background the only problem is that when i type my answers it covers the map. How can i make teh writing over the map without it erasing?

it may take a bit more time but how about something like

code:

var font1 : int := Font.New ("serif:12")
assert font1>0
Font.Draw("Hi",5,5,font1,black)


but instead of the text simply put on the screen by the user, you'de have to use this for each letter that the person type (like throw the char in an array and then type it)

it will take time, and i'm sure there's probably a better way, but i hope this helps


Note to clayton: i used the code thingys so you dont have to mod
