Corning Community College

CSCS2330 Discrete Structures

PROJECT: Flexible Observant Mind (FOM0)

Objective

Using the TIC-80 fantasy console simulator on your pi, implement a program that performs a sprite-based animated count of a set of LEDs (a minimum of 9) in binary from 0 through the maximum value able to be represented therein.

The three approaches I'd like for you to implement are those of:

  • bitwise-logic
  • remainders (the division approach when converting base 10 to base 2)
  • the “contains” approach, resulting in a progressive subtraction

The universal restriction: you must not have 2^number of LEDs if statements, one per potential number. That is NOT a feasible way to carry out this approach.

You may want work out these approaches by hand on paper to understand their details and steps of progression, then to implement it.

Additionally, the entire class will be participating in documenting and filling out this project page. It is the responsibility of EACH class member to:

  • ask copious, clarifying questions (so you can better add content)
  • craft a coherent and organized document, with information located under pertinent headings
  • explain the fundamentals of the process, conceptual background, algorithmic approach, and you can even suggest particulars related to TIC-80 (certain functions that might prove useful- individual, unrelated snippets to do things like capturing time, or displaying text, etc.)
  • to get full credit, each individual that submits must perform no fewer than 4 changes to this document (as viewable from the wiki revision system). Failure to do so will result in documentation penalties being applied.

I'll be looking for the following:

78:fom0:final tally of results (78/78)
*:fom0:no errors, program runs without issue in TIC-80 [13/13]
*:fom0:specified algorithms are implemented and functional [39/39]
*:fom0:display of sprite based, animated count [13/13]
*:fom0:project page contributions as per project specifications [13/13]

Additionally:

  • Solutions not abiding by SPIRIT of project will be subject to a 25% overall deduction
  • Solutions not utilizing descriptive why and how COMMENTS will be subject to a 25% overall deduction
  • Solutions not utilizing INDENTATION to promote scope and clarity will be subject to a 25% overall deduction
  • Solutions lacking ORGANIZATION and are not easy to read (within 90 char width) are subject to a 25% overall deduction
