Due to the sleep(wait) near the end of the script it waits 63 seconds before counting down 1 "second"
So the countdown timer would take 630 second to go down from 10 to 1.

#165035 If you won 10 million dollars, what would you do?

If I won 10 mil euro net worth, I'd buy a nice house near california state university and get my masters degree in chemistry there.
After that I would go back to the Netherlands, buy a large house there and get a nice car. I would have about 9 mil left. I would invest up to 500k in stocks and distribute the rest of it over a dozen bank accounts and live a luxerous life from the bank interest and income from a part-time job.

A modification on a game is still a game imo..
also LOVE's graphic system is obviously 10000x better than CC's. Instead of making your students draw stuff trough cursor positions and pixel art you'll acutally be able to use a normal system.
If you're not very familiar with LOVE2D, goature on youtube has a very decent and in-depth guide on how to make a game with it.

Slightly harder than CC but CC seems very inapropriate to use as a proper teaching method, since CC is a game..

There's a few things I would suggest. For the really young kids (13 or 14) I would suggest using microsoft excel or maple rather than a "real" programming language. I say this because excel is pretty easy to learn how to use, while giving them something they can actually do something with later in their lifes..
As for actual scripting, I would suggest using Love2D (lua). You can come up with a number of excercises/challenges ranging from easy to advanced. Consider using some half-finished scripts that the kids can complete as practice.
Love2D allows for relatively simple excercises, here are some examples:
-making a dot move from left to right on the screen
-making a dot move from left to right on the screen using the right arrow key
-making a dot move up/down/left/right on the screen using the arrow keys
-make a box in the screen where the dot can not move trough
Also for interactive teaching like this a whiteboard or beamer is a must. If you don't have access to this you're gonna have to write down examples on those 30+ computers individually to help those kids
Good luck and have fun, if you enjoy teaching as much as I do you're gonna have a great time

If i can find the time and will to do this soon I'll explore the use of the mouse.drag events to make one of those smartphone sliding locks where you have to draw a certain pattern.. Should be fairly easy..

#159139 Help with putting an image on an monitor.

Ask a Pro
I think the easiest way to do this is to make a function to draw the image that allows an x offset
something like this
Needless to say you will not be able to copypaste any of that, but i hope it gives you an idea of what to do.. and yes, all the variables are made up, i hope it's clear enough what i mean with it
maybe someone else has more time to write out something more detailed but i encourage you to try and do this with as little help as possible, for the sake of learning how to actually do this..
something like this
function draw(offset)
term.setCursorPos(offset,1)
write(" ")
term.setCursorPos(offset+1,2)
write(" ")
...etcetera
end
for i=1,width do draw(i) end
as for the multiple monitor thing, include something like thisif offset+imagewidth > monitorwidth then drawOnSecondMonitorWithOffset(monitorwidth-offset-imagewidth) --(not sure if this would work but i think so)

hmm my username is like 9 or 10 years old i think.. basicly when my friends (usernames ikke106 and ikke10 7) convinced me to play runescape back in 2004 or so i tried to get the username ikke108, which was taken. so was ikke109, but the game reccomended the nickname ikke009 to me, so i went with that
i use ikke106 as a second username when i need it though.
ikke is kinda a wordplay from the dutch word ik, which translates to "me". needless to say i was very young at the time..
whenever i need a "cooler" nickname for rpg's or whatever i just pick names from my favorite fantasy books (a song of ice and fire series, inheritance series, a wheel of time series)

Early high school i made this simple script that makes a windows popup/error message saying something like you have 1 banana, click OK to continue. everytime you click ok the counter goes up by one.. and there was no way of making the script stop except for logging out/rebooting the computer or something like that

Yes i meant uninformative xD The trailer looked like a big showoff of how nice the company can make trailers look..
But I'll look into this game further when it comes out i guess..

I remember someone trying to make a remake of pokemon red for computercraft I think.. I don't remember it actually being finished though because the resized sprites looked horrible and made text unreadable, the file sizes became too large to be handled by computercraft, and the whole thing would have probably taken years to complete..
Assuming you know what you are doing and you're actually capable of running a .gba rom in computercraft, the graphics will still be a big issue..

Am I the only one on this forum who is super excited for this game to go open-beta?
For the people who don't know about this game, hearthstone is a "easy to learn, hard to master" TCG by blizzard. It's currently in closed-beta (but hopefully not for much longer).
http://us.battle.net/hearthstone/en/
So what do you guys think about this game? When do you think the game will go open-beta? What's your favorite class/card etc. etc.. Leave your thoughts

Great work so far.
Your first problem is that in:
mon.write("current seconds")
current is actually a string, or a word, instead of a variable. To fix this simply put current out of the string like this:
mon.write(current .. "seconds")
Why the "current = current-1" thing isn't working.. No clue sorry :S
