Dice-Turing Help Needed :(

[jacklarry]

I need help with making a dice. I tried to make the dice roll using randomize but i have to click pause to make it stop. I need your help to make it stop using a key from the keyboard and then make it work again, so that i can roll the dice easily. Here is what i got:

Rand.Set (16#1234ABCD)
loop
put "Rolled ", Rand.Int (1, 6)
end loop

I would really appreciate your feedback. Thanx a million.

You could use Input.Pause(). Or you could use the following structure:

code:

loop   exit when hasch end loop

with a possible use of Input.Flush().

Check out:

Input.Pause
Input.Keydown()
getch()

probably in order of which is best for your situation.

*edit* wow, I really should refresh more often.

i tried the code that u told me to write. it stops the dice and also exits it. But when i run the program i just want one rolled number to appear not the whole thing. for example, when i say run, it prints the following:

You rolled 5

You rolled 6

you rolled 1

you rolled 4................and so on. The code that i typed is:

[/code] Rand.Set (16#1234ABCD)
put "Press any key to stop the dice from rolling"
delay (1000)
cls
loop
put ""
put "You rolled ", Rand.Int (1, 6)
exit when hasch
end loop

code:

I have finished my dice rolling. Thanx for the help. My dice code is:

Rand.Set (16#1234ABCD)
loop
put "Press any key to roll the dice again."
put""
put "You rolled ", Rand.Int (1, 6)
Input.Pause
cls
put "Thanks for rolling. "..
end loop

You should edit your previous posts with the "edit" button to prevent mutliple posts one after another. Also, use [code ][ /code] or syntax tags for code instead of centering it.
