of the x11 based games. I'm not going to tag the originals with bsd_44_lite and do this in two stages since it's just not worth it for this collection, and I've got directory renames to deal with that way. Bleah. Submitted by: jkh

.SH NAME

arithmetic \- quiz on simple arithmetic
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B arithmetic
|
|
.B [
|
|
\-o +\-x/
|
|
.B ]
|
|
.B [
|
|
\-r range
|
|
.B ]
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.I Arithmetic
|
|
asks you to solve problems in simple arithmetic.
|
|
Each question must be answered correctly before going on to the next.
|
|
After every 20 problems, it prints the score so far and the time taken.
|
|
You can quit at any time by typing the interrupt or end-of-file character.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.TP
|
|
\-o
|
|
By default,
|
|
.I arithmetic
|
|
asks questions on addition of numbers from 0 to 10, and corresponding
|
|
subtraction.
|
|
By supplying one or more of the characters
|
|
.BR +\-x/ ,
|
|
you can ask for problems in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and
|
|
division, respectively.
|
|
If you give one of these characters more than once, that kind of problem
|
|
will be asked correspondingly more often.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\-r
|
|
If a
|
|
.I range
|
|
is supplied,
|
|
.I arithmetic
|
|
selects the numbers in its problems in the following way.
|
|
For addition and multiplication, the numbers to be added or multiplied
|
|
are between 0 and
|
|
.IR range ,
|
|
inclusive.
|
|
For subtraction and division, both the required result and the number to
|
|
divide by or subtract will be between 0 and
|
|
.IR range .
|
|
(Of course,
|
|
.I arithmetic
|
|
will not ask you to divide by 0.) The default
|
|
.I range
|
|
is 10.
|
|
.PP
|
|
When you get a problem wrong,
|
|
.I arithmetic
|
|
will remember the numbers involved, and will tend to select those numbers
|
|
more often than others, in problems of the same sort.
|
|
Eventually it will forgive and forget.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.I Arithmetic
|
|
cannot be persuaded to tell you the right answer.
|
|
You must work it out for yourself.
|
|
.SH DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
``What?'' if you get a question wrong.
|
|
``Right!'' if you get it right.
|
|
``Please type a number.'' if arithmetic doesn't understand what you typed.
