(50g) Magic 8 Ball 50G - CosmicTruth - 07-02-2014 02:04 AM
Well I had no idea about this but I tried and here it is, I don't know if this is ever been done before, and if it has here it is again.
Magic 8 Ball for 50G!
'M8BallG'
[attachment=926]
Instructions:
unzip the file and find 3 grobs and a text program file called 'M8BallG.txt'
upload all 3 files to the same directory on your 50G using the text transfer setting. Ask the 50G a yes or no question and press the 'M8BallG' softkey and watch in amazement as the calculator predicts the correct answer with 100% accuracy, then press [ON] (CANCEL) to quit looking at the amazing correct answer. I had no idea when I was writing this program how accurate it would be. I asked the 50G at least 3043 or 3044 questions and it hasn't been wrong yet.
Have fun with this and send me some of your winnings.

Dog slow but really has potential! Nice work.
Can you get the whole 8-ball to appear? The bottom part of it doesn't fit on the screen

its dog slow because I have WAIT to create more suspense. and i'm sure I could make the bottom of the 8 ball appear but I used
->LCD instead of {} PVIEW except for the last frame. Now if i was real good I could make a smaller grob to superimpose on just the parts of the grob that was changing, in that way one could make a much smaller program.
I noticed in the first program above the line near the end of the program that says
2 ->GROB GXOR
should be
1 ->GROB GXOR
and some other tweeks were needed like embedding the GROBS.
here is an updated M8Ball[attachment=927]
save calculator space by deleting the old GROBs and program.

If you can get the whole 8-ball on the screen and then put the text inside the triangle after the user hits ENTER I would be surprised if you couldn't sell a few copies

Don't count on it
Now maybe a fortune cookie where the cookie breaks! I could advertise zero calorie fortune cookies!
