Hello Sunanda, Cute program. But, the wait is loooooooooonnnnnnnnnggg. Let me haul ass. Also track my stats. This way I can prove the point to others faster. Meaning, show me numbers, with total plays, total wins.
I happen to be VERY good at dealing 3 Card Monty. This is the card game you see people in New York playing on the street corners (I wonder if it gets its name from Monty Hall). So I can "throw" the card (usually an ace among two jokers) where ever I wish. When teaching the odds of this game (not 3 Card Monty, but Monty Hall puzzle), we play about 20 times, at which point people finally believe the odds of 2/3. Some think I'm simply "throwing" the cards. Which I only do for children, and paying adults! :) With your permission I would like to put a version of your Rebol app on my personal site for future examples to others. All source will remain in tact, and with your comments, etc. Reichart...

Though I was a bit confused about the prize being a battleship rather than a car! One quick point, staying focused on compactedness of code. If you have a web/reb site, you could put your images up on that and use load-thru to access them. So the script is just 3 or 4k, and the first time I run it, it downloads the PNGs. Later runs will find the images in Rebol's cache. You could even get the script down to about 1 K by compressing it, and having the main program look like: Rebol [] do load decompress #{...script...} If anyone wants a copy of Mario's script (31K WinZip file), and it's already tomorrow, please email me privately, Sunanda. -- To unsubscribe from this list, please send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" in the subject, without the quotes. -- To unsubscribe from this list, please send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" in the subject, without the quotes.
