Binary Coder

Yes, this is YES a binary decoder, but a binary Coder. This takes any decimal system number and
converts it to binary. Run this program to see for yourself.

REM binary
SCREEN 7
COLOR 1, 2

_FONT 16
LOCATE 7, 10
PRINT "Binary Coder"

SLEEP 5

start:

CLS
LOCATE 1, 1
PRINT "Binary coder"
PRINT "_____________"
PRINT ""
PRINT ""
PRINT ""
PRINT ""

INPUT "Enter Decimal number"; a


CLS
LOCATE 1, 1
PRINT "Binary coder"
PRINT "_____________"
PRINT ""
PRINT ""
WHILE a <> 0
PRINT a MOD 2;
IF a MOD 2 = 1 THEN
a = a \ 2
ELSE a = a / 2
END IF
WEND
PRINT ""
PRINT ""
PRINT "Binary code is reversed"
WHILE INKEY$ <> " "
WEND
GOTO start

Just the trouble is: the binary code is reversed. You might have guessed it by looking at the last
PRINT statement. I still haven't figured out how to reverse it, so I guess you have to do it yourself.
And , the WHILE loop has a print statement with the semicolon at the end. That is used to ensure
that the next number comes after it, not on the next line.

Projectile Game

Remember Gorillas? Well, take out the graphics and what you get is this:

10
RANDOMIZE TIMER
cor = RND * 150
cor2 = CINT(cor)
IF cor2 < 30 AND cor2 > -30 THEN GOTO 10

PRINT "The object to hit is at coordinates"; cor2

INPUT "enter velocity"; v


INPUT "enter angle"; a
d = ((v ^ 2) * SIN(2 * a)) / 10
PRINT "Hit on:"
PRINT CINT(-d)

IF CINT(-d) < cor2 + 30 AND CINT(-d) > cor2 - 30 THEN


PRINT "Well Done!"
ELSEIF CINT(-d) < 30 AND CINT(-d) > -30 THEN PRINT "Hey , you hit
us!"
ELSE PRINT "Ugh, not on target"
END IF

Huh? Ok, now the maths is complicated , but the formula is basically the same. Here, the
projectile has to land between 30 coordinates out of the hit object, or else you lose. See
Wikipedia:Projectile motion for more information on the maths part. Tip: Add graphics. It will be a
big , fat piece of code, but the final product will be AMAZING!

Check hearing

Ok, now , how high a frequency sound can you hear? Test your hearing with this program:
REM ultrasonic_test
CLS
freq = 20000
DO
PRINT "Frequency is:"; freq

SOUND freq, 18.2


INPUT "Can you hear?"; ans$
IF ans$ = "no" THEN
freqrange = freq
GOTO 10
END IF
freq = freq + 100
LOOP
10
freq = freqrange
DO
PRINT "frequency is:"; freq

SOUND freq, 18.2


INPUT "can you hear?"; ans$
IF ans$ = "no" THEN
PRINT "your max frequency is:"; freq
END
END IF
freq = freq + 2
LOOP
