Here's where all the tips will be listed.
The list might seem quite empty but I haven't had the time to work on it.
1) If you have wirtten a procedure but you have forgotten to put it above the one where you call it ,then just type above the one where you call it:
procedure nameofprocedure; forward;
This will have the same effect as if you had put it above.
2) Here's a very useful tip ( well it can also be considered a rule but since my tip section is so empty I thought I'd try and fill it up ).
If you declare a value, for example X is equal to 200 then you will have to write it like this :
X:=200;
However if you say that if X is equal to 200 then... you will have to write it like this ( see if...then clauses in TP7 definitions ):
if (X=200) then
3) Sometimes you might think that your program doesn't work since you might see a black screen for a fraction of a second and then come back to your program.
In fact it's just because your program is too simple and the computer takes a fraction of a second to go through it.
A way to deal with this is to add a delay ( see TP7 definitions ) before the end of the main procedure ( the last one ).
However you won't need this in the more complex programs.
