I believe it goes something like this:



var helpSection : int
var tutorialSection : int
var searchEngine : int 
var title : string

if rightAnswer ~= fix_Program then
     if rightanswer > tutorialSection then
           tutorialSection 
     elsif rightanswer > searchEngine then
          searchEngine
     else 
          helpSection
          title := "Descriptive Title"
     end if
end if
put fix_program
to_many_smileys := bad

Music.Play ("FileName.musictype")

look into processes for how to get it going in the background (if anyone knows how to have background music withput processes please pm me) 

turing supports MP3s , MIDIs, and WAVs

I believe it goes something like this:

proc rules
    postHelpTopicIn := "Help Forum"
    useHALPMEEInTopic := false
    if iAskedForYourCode then
        reprimandMe
    end if
end rules

You guys are good to tell him how to do it. insectoid: ... wait, I though you actually gave if the code. Damn you beat me too it. petree08: that would be the proper response.

Btw, deathbringer, Turing has a HELP FILE with a section in it called MUSIC. Use it.

Insectoid that code works perfect, and it's so verstile. I'm all about helping a programmer in need, but I mean putting this topic in Turing Submissions is just ignorant. We're not trying to gang up on you death bringer, but the rules are NOT difficult to follow.

so for example how would i make fury of the storm work i tried using these codes

var helpSection : int
var tutorialSection : int
var searchEngine : int
var title : string

if rightAnswer ~= fix_Program then
    if rightanswer > tutorialSection then
        tutorialSection
    elsif rightanswer > searchEngine then
        searchEngine
    else
        helpSection
        title := "Fury_of_the_storm.Mp3"
    end if



also tried this

 Music.Play ("Fury_of_the_storm.Mp3")

-----------------------------------
First, make sure that your mp3 file is in the same folder as your turing file. Then, all you need is the one line:

Music.PlayFile ("Fury_of_the_storm.Mp3")

To stop the music at any time, use Music.PlayFileStop.

To loop the music, use:

Music.PlayFileLoop ("Fury_of_the_storm.Mp3").

(Sorry for giving the entire answer guys, but this was a simple one line code thing so I don't believe it would really give away too much)

for anyone who want this is the song here it is also i am wondering if the code is in a process 

proscess musicabc
loop
(then the code for playing and loading the MP3 file)
end loop 
end musicabc

fork musicabc

You don't need the loop in the process as fork already assumes this. Just having Music.PlayFile in there is good enough.
but do i put like this down M:\Documents\Extra\02 - Fury of the Storm.mp3

You can just put the entire directory in quotes then after Music.PlayFile ("M:\...etc")

By the way, there's a tut here for this:
