Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a game calculator that allows users to enjoy games using the keyboard, display section, etc. of the calculator.

In more detail, two predetermined numbers are cyclically displayed in each of the multiple display digits from random positions, and the display pattern and game when these cyclically changing display contents are stopped appropriately with the stop key. This invention relates to a game calculator that allows you to enjoy a game similar to a so-called slot machine, which calculates and displays a total score according to the time element. The purpose is to provide a game Dento that allows you to measure the speed of your reflexes and also know your physical condition, motor nerves, etc. on that day.

Hereinafter, one embodiment of the game weight according to the present invention will be described in detail based on the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a gaming calculator according to the present invention. Bacterial medium 1 is a central processing unit (CP
2 is a read-only memory (ROM), 3 is a read/write memory (RAM), 4 is a keyboard, 5 is a display buffer, and 6 is a display body.

The CPU performs various controls such as reading a key signal according to a procedure written in advance in the read-only memory 2 or transferring the contents of the read/write memory 3 to the display 6 for display.

Incidentally, a specific pattern described later is stored in the CPU 1 in advance. Further, the read-only memory 2 stores procedures for reading and displaying key signals and procedures for performing operations such as arithmetic operations according to numerical values or formulas written in the RAM 3.

On the other hand, the read/write memory 3 consists of an area for storing numerical values and formulas, an area for storing various condition flags used in the processing of the CPUI, an area constituting a counter, and the like. That is, as shown in FIG. 2, the display contents of each display digit in the game state of register X1, which is used to set the cycle for changing the display contents in the game state, are as follows: If there is a matching display digit among the four condition flags 81 to S4 provided corresponding to the number of display digits (4 digits) and the stopped display digit (display content) to recognize that the display has been stopped, , and four flags IP to 4P that are set depending on the match. By the way, when the flag IP matches two digits,
Flag 2P becomes flag 3P when two sets of two digits match.
is set when three sets match, and flag 4P is set when all four digits match.

The keyboard 4 is equipped with numeric keys O to 9, various function keys, a game start key 7, etc. Especially during the game, as shown in Fig. It is configured so that the contents of the display digits can be stopped.

As is clear from FIG. 3, the number of digits displayed on the display 6 during the game is a total of four digits with a hyphen in between. These display contents are such that, for example, the numbers 0 to 9 and the four characters AEFL are displayed cyclically at random positions or at arbitrary intervals from positions with some kind of regularity. Figure 4 is a flowchart. The operation will be explained in detail based on this figure.

First, in step 1, initialize the game, i.e. RAM
A 4-digit random number is generated in register X in a to determine the display contents at the start, and other flags, etc. Next, the time is counted from the time the game starts by pressing the game start key, and it is determined whether the preset game time has been exceeded. If the game time has been exceeded, the game will automatically end. (Step 2).

On the other hand, if the game is not over, step 3 to step 6
At , it is determined whether or not a key for stopping display change corresponding to each digit has been operated, and when the key has been operated, the process proceeds to steps 7 to 10 and corresponding values 51 to S4 are set. Then, proceed to step 11, and if there is a digit that has already stopped when each of the above stop keys is operated,
It is determined whether the content of that digit matches the content of the digit that has just been stopped, and appropriate flags IP to 4P are set depending on the match result.

Thereafter, in step 12, it is determined whether all digits have stopped, that is, whether all flags 81 to S4 have been set. If not, the process proceeds to step 13. In step 13, the register DT that determines the display change timing is counted up, and then in step 14 it is determined whether or not the previous register DT has counted over.

That is, here, a constant display change cycle is determined,
The display is changed when the register DT counts over. When the count has exceeded, the process proceeds to step 15, and as a pre-process to change the display, only the digits that have not been stopped, that is, the digits for which flags 81 to S4 are not set, use register X in RAM 3 to change the display contents, and The contents of X are transferred to the display to change the display contents of the digits that have not yet been stopped (step 16).

In this way, when it is confirmed in step 12 that the display contents of all digits have stopped (when the game ends), in step 17 the correspondence relationship between the display contents finally stopped and displayed is flagged as IP~ Determined by 4P set/reset status. As a result of the judgment, only the matched digits, that is, the digits corresponding to the flags that have been set, are turned on and off repeatedly (approximately twice every 1/2 second), and the matching digits are notified. The blinking method of this matching digit is as shown in FIG. That is, (
(a) is a case where only two digits match, and (b) is a case where two sets of two digits match. In this case, first one matching digit is flashed, and then the other matching digit is flashed. Also, (C)
(d) shows the case where all 4 digits match, and (d) shows the case where all 4 digits match.

When the blinking display of the matching digit is finished in step 18, the process automatically enters step 19 to calculate the score.

The total score is calculated as follows.

First, the contents that are displayed randomly are numbers 0 to 9 and A.
Assuming that the selection is from the 4 characters of EFL, the number 8
Add a weight of 10 points to points and letters, and further set the hands of 1 pair, 2 bears, 3 cards, and 4 cards and the scores for them as shown in the table below depending on the match status, and apply them to each game result. Next, calculate the time score B. That is,
At the start of the game, a countdown is made by 1 every second from MAXloo, and the remaining number at the end of the game (when all 4-digit display contents are stopped) is multiplied by a constant 200.

In this way, the score A based on display and the score B based on time.
and add both to get the final total score. If the letters or numbers in any digit do not match, you will be forced to score B based on time, 1. The score will be corrected to ``O'' and the total score will be displayed as ``O''.

On the other hand, if there is no consistency in the display contents at step 17, the process proceeds to step 20, and the CPU
A match with the specific pattern set in I is determined.

If the two match, the display contents are displayed blinking in step 21 until the next key is operated (see Figure 6).
e), (f)).

Here, if you continue to operate a specific key (the status
1 to 22), secret data that cannot be obtained through key operations under normal conditions (refer to Figure 6 for data that is preset on the CPU and is normally not desired to be displayed easily)). Set it in register X of RAM3 Step 23
), and this secret data is displayed in step 24.

In this way, the game can be played and the scores can be displayed.

In the above embodiment, if the secret data is automatically set in the register X after the blinking process, as in steps 18 and 19, the key determination in step 22 can be omitted.

As described above, the gaming calculator according to the present invention cyclically displays one predetermined number character in each of the plurality of display digits from a random position at an arbitrary period, and stops these cyclically changing display contents appropriately by pressing the stop key. Since the total score is calculated and displayed according to the display pattern and the time element of the game, you can enjoy the game like a so-called slot machine, and further improve your reflexes in relation to the displayed total score. It can demonstrate effects not found in conventional calculators, such as being able to measure your speed, as well as learn about your physical condition and motor nerves that day.
