REMEMBRANCE
=========================================================

Hello, ComputerCraft community!

This is a quick project I put together on a whim: Tell me what you think.

Sorry for the limited pics, any more would be spoilers/cheats!

This game will test your memory, and cause you to think. I created it as a test of the colors api. If you enjoy this, tell me and I will make more levels.

Sorry, that doesn't appear to be a valid paste.

read() halts the script until the user presses "enter", specifically (as opposed to "any key"). os.pullEvent("key") waits until any key press, while os.pullEvent("char") waits for one that can be represented as an on-screen character.

For eg, instead of:

ans1 = read()

You might use:

__,ans1 = os.pullEvent("char")

You could shrink things down a fair bit by making better use of your "drawBackground()" function - why should all your other screen patterns include the border when that's already drawn it for you?

I recommend looking into "for" loops next, then tables.

I scored 4/5 by answering the last question incorrectly.

Tables complement for loops a lot thanks to the pairs() iteration function. I recommend learning the numeric for, then tables, then the generic for in that order.

Nice, but… short…
