Introduction to Unix for Engineers

cool text based game

Review

Usage

This was a very cool game once i got it working. I tried running in from putty but it didnt seem to work. I figured i was making some sort of error and then tried to run it from visual studio. I download the file and it failed to compile. My computer failed to include . I dont know why. I commented that include line out and noticed that only the sleep() fuction then failed. I found a easy replacement. I include and changed sleep() to Sleep(). I then had to add the text files into the project and it worked great! It was well built and easy to use.

Style

The code seems well organized. It contains several txt files that are used to drive the graphics of the game. It has a well designed exceptionhandling.h that allowed me to relize that i had failed to properly include the txt files. It use of classes allow it to reuse code.

Philosophy

This project followed the unix philosophy fairly well. Its use of classes allow the code to be modular and reusable.
