Machine Problem 3: Grading Report

Please print this page and provide it to the TA when you demonstrate your machine problem.
When you submit this, the TA should:
check your solutions,
ask a random question that tests your understanding of the MP,
assign points for each item on the list,
check the 'Demo' box,
assign bonus/penalty points,
and provide the floppy for electronic handin.
This page should be stapled to the front of your MP3 assignment.

Category Points Min Max
MP3Main
  • Terminates the game on pressing the Esc key anytime during game play.
  • Loops until all the lives are used up.
  • Handles any race condition ( the ball should not hang in mid-air for a few seconds ).
  • Causes the player paddle to move smoothly.
0 5
GenerateGame
  • Generates the ball at a different location ( in the middle row ), for each new game.
  • Ends the game when no more lives are remaining.
0 5
DrawScreen
  • Does not cause the screen to flicker.
  • Draws the paddles and ball correctly on the screen.
  • Updates the score and lives remaining properly.
0 5
UpdatePlayers
  • Handles the UP key and DOWN key appropriately. 
  • Causes the AI to move with a certain amount of randomness.
  • There should be at least one case where the AI randomly returns the ball, and another where it misses.
0 5
UpdateBall
  • Makes sure that the ball bounces off the paddles, and NOT otherwise.
  • Simulates the library code in handling the motion of the ball at the edges.
0 5
UpdateMap
  • Handles all ball movement ( except at the edges ).
  • Updates the wallpaper correctly, on bouncing off a block.
  • Simulates the library code in handling the motion of the ball near the blocks.
0 5
Keyboard ISR
  • This is a combined check for all three function calls:
  • Installs and Uninstalls the KbdHandler correctly.
0 10
Timer ISR
  • This is a combined check for all three function calls.
  • Installs and Uninstalls the TimerHandler correctly.
  • Sets the timer chip to fire 36 times a second and resets it back to 18 when done.
  • Calls oldTimerV every second time so as not to disturb other programs running simultaneously in memory.
