Re: 10 PRINT CHR$(205.5+RND(1)); : GOTO 10

Very good job on this one, Hunter.

Hi [banned user],

Again my compliments to the original post.

Ah, so that's why a one liner wouldn't work, I was wondering.

Now I am wondering if... (time for an experiment.)

_FONT 8 is 8x8, so that makes it align.

Code: QB64: [Select]

1. 10 _FONT 8: PRINT CHR$(45 * INT(RND * 2) + 47);: _DISPLAY: _LIMIT 60: GOTO 10

Rats! Mr ninja fingers with ninja mind beat me! (but not quite the experiment I had in mind, maybe if I wait some more... )

BTW did you know there is a game called Ninja Theory? I just found out looking up capitalization.

Hmm... I think I will reserve this space ahead of my experiment results, just in case they are successful. ;)

Append: well I did need the _FONT 8 idea with what I had in mind which eliminates some gaps:

Code: QB64: [Select]

1. SCREEN _NEWIMAGE(560, 420, 32): _FONT 8: DO WHILE i < 80 * 60: _PRINTSTRING ((i MOD 80) * 7, INT(i / 80) * 7), CHR$(45 * INT(RND * 2) + 47): i = i + 1: LOOP
2.
