by using the Rand module in turing and some ingenuity.

hmm maybe rand.int(0,999)+rand.int(0,999)? but then how do yu record wat user put down and if its correct?

Store information as variables.

but how would you make it ask different question every time you answer
cervantes?


var number1:real:=Rand.Int(0,99)
var number2:real:=Rand.Int(0,99)
var question:real:=Rand.Int(0,99)
var reply:string
var math_answer:real
loop
put"math question answer?"
get reply
if reply="yes" then

put number1,"+",number2
get math_answer
if math_answer=number1+number2 then
put"you win"
end if
end if
end loop

ok yeah, first of all you can make it int cause Rand.Int(0,99) will never give a real value thats what Rand.Real does. So something like this to make them random again...

code:

if math_answer=number1+number2 then
  number1 :=Rand.Int(0,99)
  number2 :=Rand.Int(0,99)
end if

You generate the random number inside the loop like so:

code:

var number1, number2, answer : int
var reply : string

loop
    put "math question answer?"
    get reply
    if reply = "yes" then
        number1 := Rand.Int (0, 99)
        number2 := Rand.Int (0, 99)
        put number1, "+", number2
        get answer
        if answer = number1 + number2 then
            put "right answer"
        else
            put "wrong answer"
        end if
    end if
end loop

so guys hwo would yu make a counter in that?
say i wanted to ask as many questions as i wanted within 30 seconds?
anyone know?

teh counter could be
for decreasing j : 10 .. 1
put j
delay(1000)
cls
end for
but then it erases after and it gets all screwd lol suggestions?

if you want a specific timer then:
from start of program-> Time.Elapsed
from a specific point-> Time.DelaySinceLast

code:

var number1, number2, answer : int
var counter : int := 0
var reply : string

loop
    put "math question answer?"
    get reply
    if reply = "yes" then
        number1 := Rand.Int (0, 99)
        number2 := Rand.Int (0, 99)
        put number1, "+", number2
        get answer
        if answer = number1 + number2 then
            put "right answer"
        else
            put "wrong answer"
        end if
    end if
    counter := counter + 1  %there is a way of doing this like counter += 1 %I think, but I'm not sure.
exit when counter = 30
end loop
put "finished"


Oops, I misread, I thought you said "30 times" not 30 seconds... Oh well, just in case - there you have it.
