put "1." get inwrd1
put "2." get inwrd2
put "3." get inwrd3
put "4." get inwrd4
put "5." get inwrd5
put "6." get inwrd6
put "7." get inwrd7


i want it so that when user input it will come up like the following

1. hello
2. hi
3. bye
etc. . . . . . to 7

2end question is

how can i have it so that user can also input side by suide like this

if you put .. at the end of the stamend the next input or output will be at the end of the line insted of the next line.

Ex.

code:

put "put in a num: "..
get num


this whode look like this:

put in a num: 6

code:

var inwrd : array 1 .. 7 of string

put "Please enter 7 words."
put ""

for I: 1 .. 7

  put "Please enter word ", I, ".", " :>" ..
 
  get inwrd (I)

end for

cls

for I: 1 .. 7

  put I,".", inwrd (I)
 
end for


This should do you for now. The only thing I haven't done is to get them all lined up. But with seven words, unless you have a big run window, they'll get cut off. We just started doing arrays so this was good practise for me. In fact, I figured out something while doing this that I need to incorporate into my own program! Very Happy

i am using that code u told me


i added it into my code, those words will be used in this code

code:

var inwrd, inwrd1, inwrd2, inwrd3, inwrd4, inwrd5, inwrd6, inwrd7 : array 1 .. 7 of string

put
    "The maximum number of letters in the word for Hangman is 10.  When guessing a "
put "letter, please use lowercase letters.  You have 7 guesses."
delay (6)
cls

put "Please enter 7 words."
put ""

for I: 1 .. 7

  put "Please enter word ", I, ".", " :>" ..
 
  get inwrd (I)

end for


code:
% initialization
word (1) := inwrd
word (2) := inwrd
word (3) := inwrd
word (4) := inwrd
word (5) := inwrd
word (6) := inwrd
word (7) := inwrd


i then get error


Assigned value is the wrong type

I don't know what you're trying to do at the end here. But first of all, if you don't have word declared as a variable (needs to be an array too) then the program isn't going to like you. It looks like you're doing a hangman program so I think what you need to do is create a list of words, and make the program pick one of them randomly at the beginning of the program. Then when the user inputs seven guesses, you're going to have to make an "if" statement that says for each wrong word, put "wrong", and if the right word is guessed, then put "right!" at the end of the correct word. Something like:

code:


if inwrd (I) = %your random word% then

  put "right!"

else

  put "wrong"

end if



Then you'd probly want to loop the whole thing so that if the player guesses right then the program will start again with a new word. And if the player guesses wrong, then to put game over and exit. I'll have to see if I can get more on this for you later.

youre using arrays incorrectly. this tutorial should help http://compsci.ca/bbs/viewtopic.php?t=366

i am trying to have it so when i type in 7 words, then those words will be then retrieved from

word (1) := inwrd
word (2) := inwrd
word (3) := inwrd
word (4) := inwrd
word (5) := inwrd
word (6) := inwrd
word (7) := inwrd

randomly

inwrd is an array (a 1..7) array. And you're trying to assign a WHOLE array into a single element of it.

Instead you should have

word(1) := inwrd(1)
word(2) := inwrd(2)

If you haven't done so already, read a tutorial on arrays http://compsci.ca/bbs/viewtopic.php?t=366 Hopefully it will explain them better. It also gives some proper examples of using arrays. If you still have problems, dont mind posting (also sujestions if there's something missing in tutorial)
