Question

Visual Basic question: Computers are playing an increasing role in education. Write a program that will help an elementary school student learn multiplication. Use random object to produce two positive one-digit integers.The program should then prompt the user with a question such as How much is 6 x 7?. The student then inputs the answer. Next the program checkes the students answer. If it is correct, display the message "Very Good" and ask another multiplication problem. If the answer is wrong, display the message "No, Please Try again" and let the student try the same question repeatedly until the student gets it right. A separate function should be used to generate each new question. This function should be called once when the application begins execution and each time the user answers correctly.

Explanation / Answer

Create five variables (e.g. intNumber1, intNumber2, intAnswer, intAnswer, intAsked) that are part of the entire form:

VB Code:


In the form_load insert the code:

VB Code:

intNumber2 = int(rnd*10 + 1)

lblQuestion.caption = "How much is " & intNumber1 & " times "_ & intNumber2 & "?"

intAnswer = intNumber1 * intNumber2

intAsked = intAsked + 1

You now have the first question prepared. Now in your next question command button, insert the code:

VB Code:

dim intComment as integer

if cint(txtAnswerStudentGave.text) = intAnswer then

intComment = int(rnd * 4 + 1)

intScore = intScore + 1

if intComment <= 1 then

lblComment.caption = "Very Good"

elseif intComment = 2 then

lblComment.caption = "Excellent"

elseif intComment = 3 then

lblComment.caption = "Good Job"

else

lblComment.caption = "Keep up the good work"

end if

else

intComment = int(rnd * 3 + 1)

if intComment <= 1 then

lblComment.caption = "No, please try again"

elseif intComment = 2 then

lblComment.caption = "Wrong, try once more"

else

lblComment.caption = "Don't Give Up!"

end if

end if

if intAsked < 10 then

intNumber1 = int(rnd*10 + 1) 'Maxium of 10

intNumber2 = int(rnd*10 + 1)

lblQuestion.caption = "How much is " & intNumber1 & " times "_

& intNumber2 & "?"

intAnswer = intNumber1 * intNumber2

intAsked = intAsked + 1

else

intScore = round(intScore / 10)

lblComment.caption = "Your score is " & intscore & "%." & vbcrlf & "--Copied from VBForums.com"

end if

I accept no responsibility for errors! Errors will probably form if you modify the above code in any way!
