Thanks for your support of my teaching style reg. the last time I wrote. I
appreciate it. I feel sorry for the teacher writing recently who has 30%
absentee rate each day and large classes. I am soooo spoiled and know it.
One of my sixth graders is using Microworlds and is trying to program a
soccer game. One of the things he wants to do is have the arror keys or the
number keys on the keyboard have spacific functions for his game. Like
turning and moving the players. I am more familiar with Logo Plus. With it
we could say:
Make "key rq
if :key = char 56 then fd 10
but apparently make doesn't work this way in MW and rq isn't a function. We
know the ascii number of each key he wants to use (the arror keys don't seem
to have an ascii number but my student is willing to work around that). I
even tried:
if ascii = 56 then fd 10
He doesn't want to have buttons all over his soccer field so they are not an
option. Is there a way to program keys in MW or not?
Thanks for your help on this problem in advance.
