Yahtzee v1.0 - The classic dice game Platform: TI-83, TI-83+ Author: Matt Walsh E-Mail: scienceguy@catsrule.garfield.com Web Site: http://ti.science2001.cjb.net Please feel free to edit this program but please use the edited copy for your own purposes. If you have any questions or comments, find any bugs, or have a suggestion please e-mail me and include the version that you are running. ------- History ------- I made this program when I found out that no other one existed. ------------- Documentation ------------- After you run the program the title screen appears. Press enter at any time to go directley to the game. The first four rows and the begining of the fifth row on the screen show the availble scoring options: 1's through 6's - Score for the respective dice FH - Full house (one pair and three of a kind) SS - Small straight (4 consecutive dice) LS - Large straight (5 consecutive dice) 3K - 3 of a kind 4K - 4 of a kind CH - Chance (scores all dice) YT - Yahtzee (5 of a kind) Right of YT is the current score Right of the current score is the number of remaining rolls Below the score is the sub-total (total of 1's through 6's) The last line shows the dice in your hand Press the button directley below the die to toggle holding or discarding. An underline appears under the number when it is held. Once you have chosen the dice that you want to hold press enter to roll. Then select any more dice that you want to hold and roll again. Once you are out of rolls or you have a hand that you want to score type the number of the scoring option that you want to use and press enter. For example, type in 10 for three of a kind. (Do this slowly because the calculator needs time to process each key press) Notes on scoring: Yahtzees can be scored more that once. Once a Yahtzee has been scored all subsequent Yahtzees can be schored as a Yahtzee and something else. When you enter 13 and press enter you will recieve 100 points, then enter a second scoring option and press enter. Scoring a subtotal of 63 or higher will give you 35 bonus points. Teacher Key: Press alpha at any time to return to a fake home screen. The screen will allow you to do any calculations, but some menus and buttons are unavailable. Type a . and then press enter to return to your game. ---------------- Revision History ---------------- 1.0 First public release ----------------- Planned Additions ----------------- None
