I started turing about a month ago and this is my first biger than 1kb turing program, it is a trivia game. there are five questions, some are trick questions so watch out.

this is quite good for a month of Turing -- it, by far, beats a lot of end of term "projects" that attempt to code trivia games. Good job.

something I found weird though
Turing:

if answer1 = "a" or answer1 = "b" or answer1 = "c" or answer1 = "d" then
    ...
elsif answer1 = "e" then
    ...
end if

One problem is that if I enter anything else (such as "q"), I get no response what so ever. And really, typing out all of those "or answer = ..." is just annoying.
Turing:

if answer1 = "e" then
   ...
else
   ...
end if


also, this is neat. Instead of if answer1 = "a" or answer1 = "b" or answer1 = "c" or answer1 = "d" then you could use
Turing:

if answer1 >= "a" and answer1 <= "d" then

For one month this is pretty nice.

Try to read up on procedures, and file I/O for yeur next program and make it better!

Oh, and my anti virus is better than THAT! Sad
Sad

thanks i never thought to put
"if answer1 >= "a" and answer1 <= "d" then"
that could really shorten some future programs

at first i was going make it so that if you got too many questions wrong your computer would shut down but i dicided not to because i figured some people might not like that.

It's really good for your first big program. It reminds me of the stupid test.

Nice paint job on that warhammer high elf there Michael (It is a warhammer high elf, right?)

I myself play 40k and lotr.

You going to gamesday?

(if that pic was randomly picked off the internet, and you have no idea what warhammer is, please let me know so I can stop making a fool of myself.

Also, for what Tony suggested with the answers, you might want to check if it is not a proper response then display a message.

Turing:

if answer1 >= "e" then
put "Not an available option"
end if
