Alien Defense
By Larry Ashmun from Soft Sector Piloting your ship across the horizontally moving terrain, you must battle the various enemy spacecraft. You are under attack almost constantly from missiles and bombs, and to make matters worse, your ground patrol people are being picked up by the alien landers. To save them, you must shoot the landers and swoop down to catch the falling man. This fast action game requires skill and rapid reflexes. The model III version makes excellent use of that model's...

Mini Graf
For Models I, II and III Jim Peyton, Georgetown, KY You may have graphing programs by the diskful. Here is a miniaturized version which won't put a large bite byte on your storage space. It holds a dozen items, just enough for a year's worth of months or whatever, and supports a range ratio of 1 to 50. All inputs are prompted. It even centers itself vertically on the screen. For the Model II you will need to change the PRINT statement in the second line to 80 INT 12 I l 2 31-LEN A 2 and the...

Double precision function routines
For all models, tape or disk except the color computer Did you scientific TRS-80 programmers know that SQR, LOG, EXP and the Trigonometric functions still give single precision results even though they may be defined as double The results appear to be double precision, but the last 10 digits are actually garbage. This problem has prompted me to write subroutines that calculate these functions even though Radio Shack sells a similar version part 26-1704 9.95 . The program was written for two...

Hash codes simplified
A hash code is a general form of table lookup procedure known as key transformation. The key variable contains the information used to recover the data record.

It can reduce the size of a file required to store information. In the September issue, a To Do List program was used as an example of a...
