Humphrey) Subject: Acka: Viruses Refereeing I used a program that I wrote up in Perl. "Game of Life" programs are often the first major ones I write in any language, and the Virus thing took only minor adjustments. I even modified it to automatically keep track of the row numbers and column letters, although I still haven't figured out why, whenever it has to remove a column, it'll print letters from F to ZZ, instead of from F to U or whatever. But anyway... I'd be happy to double-check the grids for anyone refereeing Viruses _before_ they post them... - -- - --Alfvaen (Web page:http://www.telusplanet.net/public/alfvaen/) Current Album--The City:Foundation Current Book--Tanya Huff:Gate of Darkness, Circle of Light Never attribute to malloc() what can be adequately explained by stupidity. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 01 Feb 1998 17:38:03 -0500 (EST) From: "Joseph W.

There will also be a new YORL page up after we get the first play. /dev/joe ------------------------------ End of acka-games-digest V3 #262 ********************************
