TI>when you get the input, from the user, check to see if it is within the vali

TI>if there is a menu that says: (1) do something (2) go someware (Q) Quit.

TI>Check and see if the user enterd eather '1' '2' or 'q', if he didnt, then
TI>remove 50 points, because he musta hit ctrl-c, this will compansate you.

TI>it's not a "direct" fix to your problem, but as i said, sometimes you need t
TI>be creative.   :-)

I'm tired of being creative if not diverse :)
I've tried everything except changing everything to
