how to make a random math question generator?

[AsianSensation]

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.

lol cervantes you again, im glad you are on this thingy

[susan_101]

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?

[susan_101]

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?

[susan_101]

anyone? aww im being ignored lol

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.
