Who wants to be a zillionaire

i need urgent help, i am programming a game" who wants to be a zillionaire" and i dont know how to start, i have thot about my classes but am stuck.
help please
thanks

The problem is to define classes suitable for playing a game of ?Who Wants to be a Zillionaire?. This game is a cross between the successful TV quiz shows ?Who Wants to be a Millionaire? and ?Mastermind?. Players choose a category on which to answer questions. Questions are of a multiple-choice nature with the answer being one of four possibilities. If the player answers the question correctly an amount of ?money? is credited to that player. Questions have a difficulty level according to the amount of ?money? players are awarded for answering that question correctly. The questions are asked in ascending order of difficulty and, therefore, value. Players take turns to answer questions. If a player cannot answer a question, help is available as follows:
? Ask the Public. This involves a simulation of each possible answer being given a rating according to the likelihood that it is the correct answer. Ratings for all four possible answers must add up to 100% in total.
? Half-and-half. Two of the possible answers are removed leaving only the right answer and one wrong answer.
Players are only allowed to use each help facility once per game. If a wrong answer is given that player is out of the game. The winner is the player with the most money credited at the end of the game.

Looking for software that allows you to make "who wants to be a millionaire". Must be able to put in your own questions and HAS to be for the Mac. Help!

I am a teacher who would love to create the game "who wants to be a millionaire" with my own questions. I would use this for test reviews. I can't not find something for the mac. It is out there for the PC, but my class room is mac based. I can't use anything that will allow me to run the mac in windows, either. Anyone know of a software that will allow me to input my own questions? Thank you very much for your time and consideration.

You may possibly find something here:

but in any case beware of copyright.

This is for people who wants to mirror all they apple devices when they travel.

this is for people who wants to mirror all they apple devices when they travel and don't want to unplug everything from the apple tv and take it with them, you can get the amazon fire tv stick and download an app called airplay upnp or the reflector app and mirror all of your apple devices to it, it is great for traveling easy to setup and move around, for example if your traveling and want to use it in the conference room and then want to take with you back to the hotel for the night and plug it in and keep on doing that routine.
it will be great to use hopeful until apple comes out apple with their own apple tv stick

The Verizon DVR is admittedly not the sharpest box on the market. I admit to giving up on the multi-room DVR product, it just never worked satisfactorily for me.
Hopefully features/functions issues will improve in the near term with the Cisco/Scientific Atlanta box that obviously isn't going to make Q1. I admit I have ceased holding my breath. Something does have to happen fairly soon because 160gb drives are literally going out of production.
You do however make two statements that incorrect. Current TiVO's only need 1 cable card, since the standard cable card today in Verizon's stock is the M-Card. You also have the option with TiVO of paying either an annual fee, or a one time fee, both of which are lower in the long term than the month to month fee. Alternatively you can by the Moxi DVR, and it includes lifetime service in the purchase price.
While in theory a truck roll costs $79, in practice if it is for a Cable Card install, it is free (I think FCC regulations preclude the charge).
Apparently there is nothing in Verizon's order processing system that tells reps that there is no charge for Cable Card installations, so they often quote the $79 fee because that is the standard charge for technician to come out. As far as I can tell (and there have been lots of posts about cable card installs), no one has in fact been charged the $79 fee..

Who wants to be a millionaire - uploading onto website

Hi everyone,
I'm very new to Adobe Captivate. I've created a Who wants to be a Millionaire game on Captivate 8 and would like to know exactly how I would upload it onto my webpage. I've configured it and created an HTML5 folder but am stuck on what next to do. Any help would be really appreciated.
Many thanks in advance
Dan

For this interactive interaction the value of the score will be stored in the associated variable (do not forget to create it, will label it v_mil).
Failure means that you don't get the total score, right? And since you only want to retake at the end, I suppose that is on another slide? Then it is easy, you just have to make a 'button' visible on that slide if the score is lower than the total score. That can be done On Enter for that slide:
IF v_mil is less than v_total    you can put the exact total score here, or store that score in another user variable v_total
   Show Bt_Retake                 where that is the button that is initially invisible
ELSE
   Continue
The button has to trigger a simple action 'Jump to ...' to get back to the slide with the game, it will be automatically reset.

System.out.println("D: " + answer4);
System.out.println("Correct answer is answer number "+ correctAnswer);
public String getQuestion()
             return question;
ok those are the codes now the hard part is making the question appear on the _private JTextField jtfquestions;_ n then having the ans place on the _private JRadioButton jrba, jrbb, jrbc, jrbd;_ then if a correct ans is inputed the JList score should move up like the game itself
this is what it looks like GUI wise

i cant fifure this out...who wants to solve a huge crime network..thisa is no joke

Nope. That's the issue.
They'll sync on a third device acting as a hotspot, but the device sending a signal is not "on" the network it creates so the airport is all by itself on that network. At least that is what it looks like to me. Anyone have another take on it? Seems pretty silly that an iPad can put out a wifi signal, an Airport Express can receive a wifi signal, and yet there is no simple way to get them to communicate under this particular condition.

22. For a customer who wants to only do slap-and-ship (eg. for Wal-Mart), approximately how long does it take to implement stand-alone AII (including hardware) ?
For a stand alone slap 'n ship scenario with no back-end integration, AII 4.0 can be implemented in approximately 2 - 3 weeks (depending on scenario complexity), and about a week for hardware installation and tuning.
Thanks,

Hi Ron,
We were planning a slap-and-ship scenario implementation. We also want AII integration with R/3 (46C). Could you please provide a typical time lines for entire AII project?
I appreciate your valuable input. Thanks.

Nothing. The 2nd Gen Touch is OBSOLETE and is WAY past its support life. If you want to run the newer apps you have to buy a newer iPod.
