Question

Provide immediate feedback for each mistyped sentence. To do so, modify the Test class’s present_test method so that it informs the player a mistake has been made, then display the challenge sentence followed by the player’s sentence so the player can determine where the error lies.

# Version: 1.0

# Author: Jerry Lee Ford, Jr.

# Date: March 2010

#

# Description: This Ruby script demonstrates how to apply conditional logic

# in order to analyze user input and control script execution

# through the development of a computer typing test that

# evaluates the player's typing skills.

#

#--------------------------------------------------------------------------

# Define custom classes ---------------------------------------------------

#Define a class representing the console window

class Screen

def cls #Define a method that clears the display area

puts ("\n" * 25) #Scroll the screen 25 times

puts "\a" #Make a little noise to get the player's attention

end

  

def pause #Define a method that pauses the display area

STDIN.gets #Execute the STDIN class's gets method to pause script

#execution until the player presses the Enter key

end

  

end

#Define a class representing the typing test

class Test

The challenge sentences are presented one at a time. To respond

correctly, you must retype each sentence exactly as shown and press

the Enter key. Your grade will be displayed at the end of the test.

Grading format: 9 or better sentences typed correctly will result in an 'A',

8 sentences typed correctly will result in a 'B',

7 sentences typed correctly will result in a 'C',

6 sentences typed correctly will result in a 'D',

less than 6 will result in an 'F'!
