Task
 | How to crash a dot During this Maths B-day you will study a game that was invented in the 1970s. It was one of the first computer games. The game is very simple, since computers in those days were very limited in what they could do. So there’s no point in looking for the game on-line, because it will no longer work on most computers, and it will not help you with the assignment! Dutch version |
