Oh wow, programming that TI-83 seems really awfully cumbersome :-)

Cheers!

determinien what to with the <something>. What you might be able to do 
is designate a string variable (text). In some languages, if you use 
addition on a string variable. Then, just say something like: 
<something> = <something> + <whichever move was picked>

to try my way, i'd be glad to help if you had any specific questions..
. I'd actually be interested in having such a program if it was 
completed. (although i have the TI-89, and never use my  83+)
