CODEWORD A Crossword Type Program For The BBC/Electron CODEWORD is a computerised version of the popular word puzzle (also known as CODEBREAK or CROSSWISE. It takes place on a crossword-like grid, but instead of clues the numbers in the white squares represent letters, and the same number is always the same letter. You will first of all be asked which puzzle you would like to play. 10 puzzles are provided, and it's easy to add more of your own [See TECHNICAL NOTES - Ed]. There is a short delay while the computer 'shuffles' the numbers - it chooses which number to assign to which letter - meaning that if you play the same puzzle again, different numbers will represent different letters. The display consists of the codeword grid, shown to the top left, with unused letters below, and on the right is a list of numbers 1-26 to which any letters are currently assigned. The computer will help you get started by assigning a few letters to this list. These letters will also be placed at the appropriate positions on the codeword grid. Now, if you think that A=1, type in A01 at the prompt (or if you think B=14 then type B14 and so on) and press <RETURN>. The letter A will be printed in every square with the number 1 in it. If you change your mind, type A00 (or simply A) followed by <RETURN> to remove the letter A from the grid. You can't assign a letter to a number, or a number to a letter, already used; if you try to do this you'll be told off. When you think you've solved the puzzle, press <RETURN> (without typing anything in) and wait while the computer checks your result against the answer. You'll receive a congratulatory message if your solution is correct. Have fun! Christopher Dewhurst 30 August 2000 EUG #55
