[squeakland] Question about concentration - the card game

[p.a.dreyfuss at excite.com]

Hi, I was searching Markus's Work about Memory.
And returning to the mail, I find Bert 's answer.

Here is the reference of a paper about idioms and describing many games including Memory.
http://www.iam.unibe.ch/~scg/Archive/Papers/Gael06aC5.pdf.

Markus has probably written the shortest code for a game, only four lines for the game Taquin, also called the 15 puzzle.

Memory uses only 32 lines of code.

I think that idioms are important in the learning process, and should be related to projects using them.

A way to do this could be the use of comments for connecting idioms and projects using them.

On the basis of Memory, you can build a lot of teaching materials.

Pairs can be word/ picture sound/words or sound /picture question/answer ...i

Regards.

If they do, the cards stay face-up, if they don’t they flip back over. The program would need to track how many cards are “showing” so that a user couldn’t flip over more than two cards at a time.

Markus has one (and many other cool projects):
