As a 5th math teacher, it would be cool to let the kids play your awesome game and then get a print out of the add/sub multi/div  facts  or  a grid showing the facts they still need to master........... so they can study just those and try again.

  I also want to say thankyou thankyou thankyou for the many hours of hard work you have all put into this cool purpose driven program.  My kids are gonna love it.

  I had thought about a game similar but using cowboys with problems on their shirt  and they shoot cheese balls at your screen after so many seconds of seeing them pop out from behind buildings.  If you answer correctly then your gun shoots them first.  Of course more and more come out as you get better and then at the end it displays which problems you got wrong so you can work on those.

The current version saves all of the incorrectly answered questions in a list 
so the player could play a new game focusing on these questions.  However, I 
have not yet implemented a way for the user interface to use this feature 
(would not be very hard, depending on how polished I make it).

Tuxmath has a lot of cool new features "under the hood", so to speak, and I 
really need to write a comprehensive new Options screen(s) to make this 
functionality usable.  Also, reading and writing the settings to disk will 
make it possible to prepare a series of "lessons" - the file reading and 
parsing part is requiring me to learn some new and rather confusing topics 
(lex/yacc).

The math questions are now handled by completely separate code from the user 
interface, so it would be entirely possible to write a different interface.

Ack :)

I made a tuxmath package now and uploaded it to debian unstable, packages f=
or=20
sarge are also available. See=20
http://lists.debian.org/debian-edu/2006/07/msg00077.html

I did some minor changes, so r15 became the "official" 0.8 release. (r16 is=
 a=20
wrong tag, and r17 is the right svn tag for this release.)=20

We should also think of a way and place to store release tarballs.

In trunk/src/tuxmath.h I kept "#define TUXMATH_DEBUG", but I think in futur=
e=20
release this should not be defined, right?!

regards,
	Holger

Right - that should be turned off for releases.

btw, I am finally making headway on the config read and write front.  I gave 
up on lex and yacc and wound up studying the code for gtkpod, a GPL ipod 
program.

Ok. I left it turned on this time, as I'm pretty confident, that 0.8-1 isn'=
t=20
the version which will be in etch finally :)

Hi Bubba,

Is that in your classroom or your home?????????   ;-)

Coming up soon - we are readying a major upgrade that includes several
new features, including factors, fractions, and questions with
multiple operands.

I am a Technology Specialist at Ore City Elementary and we have been
using TUXPAINT all year. I just discovered that you now have TUXMATH and
TUXTYPING! I am trying to figure out how to download this to my computer
and am having trouble. Please assist with a "step by step"  or
additional web site that could help me!

Thank you,

Our site is not as friendly as it could be (there are some folks working on 
improving it, however).

http://tux4kids.alioth.debian.org/

Click on "released files" (over on the right hand side)
Scroll down to find your "platform" (Windows? MacOSX?) and click on the latest 
release (which is the top file in each category).

From there, it should be just like installing any other software on your 
platform.

Good luck!

Hi Luc,

These warnings somehow get generated from the "tmdprintf()" debug
statements in some conditions, and AFAIK are harmless.

Here is the corresponding code:

    for (i = 0; i < mp_get_parameter(PLAYERS); ++i)
    {
      snprintf(str, 64, "%s: %d", mp_get_player_name(i),mp_get_player_score(i));
      SDL_Surface* score = BlackOutline(str, DEFAULT_MENU_FONT_SIZE, &white);
      SDL_Rect loc = {screen->w - score->w, score->h * (i + 2), 0, 0};
      SDL_BlitSurface(score, NULL, screen, &loc);
    }

I think the problem may be the declarations of 'score' and 'loc'
coming after the function call to snprintf() in the block - IIRC, C
originally required that all declarations precede all function calls
in a block, but more recent standards may have relaxed that.  It may
be a difference between gcc 2.95 and 4.3.3.  In svn I changed it to
the following - try pasting this in:

    for (i = 0; i < mp_get_parameter(PLAYERS); ++i)
    {
      SDL_Surface* score;
      snprintf(str, 64, "%s: %d", mp_get_player_name(i),mp_get_player_score(i));
      score = BlackOutline(str, DEFAULT_MENU_FONT_SIZE, &white);
      if(score)
      {
        SDL_Rect loc;
        loc.w = screen->w - score->w;
        loc.h = score->h * (i + 2);
        loc.x = 0;
        loc.y = 0;
        SDL_BlitSurface(score, NULL, screen, &loc);
      }
    }

Hi,

thanks for feedback. Made some changes. I would like to write "Tux
Math"(without multiplayer) , "Tux Typing" and "Tux Paint" with HTML5 and
then modify it for mobile devices using phonegap API too. This is pretty
much my proposition 3 games into javascript without multiplayer for www and
moblie devices at the end. Just tried it(phonegap) yesterday and made
simple game using accelerator working both on my android tablet and
smartphone.

Greetings,
Naimads

Hi,

I am a student of ICT(Information and Communication Technology) and i
 would like to contribute in Tuxmath project.
Please reply if i can contribute and how to do so.

Hi,
I am on my final year of college in Croatia and for my diploma thesis
I had to find educational games, translate one educational game that I
like and make a web app. I chose TuxMath and I translated, compiled
and installed it but I have a problem with getting .gmo files from .po
files. I did everything that I found I should do on this problem but
nothing happened. Also I tried to start the game in some other
language, like German, and it just started in English. Can you help
me?  (I'm compiling it in virtual Ubuntu on Windows 7)

Best, Petra

There are 2 methods that I know of:

1. You can open the po file in PoEdit and save. This will generate an
.mo file for you. Rename it to .gmo and you're done.

http://poedit.net/

2. Use the gettext command:

Sorry, I don't know the solution to this.

In addition of what others have already said, the current git version of
tuxmath has a --language switch that you can use to start tuxmath with a
different language. You can get the code with git:
http://tux4kids.alioth.debian.org/git.php

Also you should add the hr code to the po/LINGUAS file(I am not sure if
that only affects the generation/installation of translations or if it
is required also at runtime)

BTW, if you post the translation hr.po file here, it can be added to
tuxmath, oh, I see there is already a hr.po file for tuxmath
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/tux4kids/tuxmath.git/tree/po/hr.po
Don't know it's state or the correctness of its translation, and I see
hr has already been added to the po/LINGUAS file.

Do you already have an idea about the web app you have to develop?
anything related to education and/or childs?

ui, nice!

maybe time for a new release then? 2.0.4 or 2.1.0? :)
