Turing?

[Chicken]

Anyone here good with turing?

I'm trying to do this,

I want it to ask your First Middle Last name in a for loop and then output your first middle last

I'm really stumped I've tried just doing

var name : string

for count : 1 .. 3
get name
name := name + name
end for

put name

But its just crack

What does it do? I have no idea about Turing itself, but it looks like you're continually overwriting the initial 'name' variable with what you read in. What about something like:

var fullname : string

for count : 1 .. 3
get name
fullname := fullname + name
end for

put fullname

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing_programming_language i don't code Turing myself but if noone else here can help you may want to try http://www.compsci.ca/v2/ they have an entire set of forums dedicated to the Turing language.

OK, so from that link of beaver6813's, you would probably also have to add:
var name : string

under:
var fullname : string

Thanks all

I figured it out at school

Its like this

var name : string
var fullname : string

for count : 1 .. 3
put "Enter your name "
get name

fullname := name + fullname + " "

end for

put "Your full name is", fullname

I think thats correct. but just off top of my head

What he is doing is getting you to type in your name 3 times (first, middle, last) and it keeps adding it to the name string.

I don't know turing at all, but can you tell us what it's outputting when you type something into it. I think the problem could be you are overwriting name when you ask for it again.

edit: Bah, you just made that last post while I was making this one. I think you left out a get fullname, but oh well. :/

What a weird language :/
Learn something usual at school like VB

I didn't leave anything out

fullName stores First, Middle, Last in it.

It defiantly a useless language, not my option to learn it. We have to too pass.

I just looked at the code and you're right. Turing 8-X

Yep usless :P
