    Talking C++ Simple Game.

    It is required to create a simple two dimensional predator prey game
    The game is composed of the following
    1) 2 dimensional grid of size 20*20 cells closed grid.no creatures are allowed to move outside the grid

    2) Predators whom move across the gird attempting to eat prey

    3) There are different types of predators snake , scorpions

    4) There are different types of preys bugs , ants , worms

    5) Snake can eat worms and bugs but cannot eat worms

    6) Scorpions can eat worms and ants

    7) If the prey survives for 3 moves it breeds , adding a new prey of the same type in the cells around it (either top , left , right or bottom), if there is no empty cell no breeding occurs

    8) The prey can move randomly up , down , left and right, if the neighboring cell in the selected direction is occupied, or would move the ant outside of the grid. Then it stays in the same location

    9) The predator can move a step and if there is a prey around it (left, right , top or button) of proper food he eats it ,

    10) The predator can starve and die if for 3 move it didn’t eat

    11) The predator can breed a new predator of the same type if it survives for 10 moves in the cells around it (either top , left , right or bottom), if there is no empty cell no breeding occurs

    12) During one turn … predetors move then eat breed (if possible) then preys move and preed if possible

    13) You should display this using chacters “S” for snake , ‘X’for scorpion , “B”for bugs, “A”for ants,”W”for worms

    14) You programs should request from the user the user for the snake move and the scorpion move , left, right, top or buttom

    15) Initialize the game with 1 snake, 1 scorpion, 30 ants, 30 worms and 30 bugs. There location in the grid are randomly selected

    graphical user interface and UML diagrams are required.

    Looks like it'll be an all-nighter to finish this programming 201 exam!

    I copied it from the last program in which I passed a parameter, which would have been pre-1989 I guess. - esbo

    Sounds like rent a coder to me. Though students are usually too poor to pay for that.
    It's amazing how many people are willing to do work for so little money though. I mean, I've seen 20-hour projects go for 20 dollars. I wouldn't even do it for 200.

    If it's interesting/challenging for you and you'd do it as a hobby / for learning experience, why not charge a couple of bucks for it?
    I might be wrong.

    Thank you, anon. You sure know how to recognize different types of trees from quite a long way away.

    I'd do people's homework for cash. What the heck. I might just finance my retirement that way.

    Just don't make me try to teach them via emails or instant or private messaging.

    Well doing peoples homework certainly wont teach them anything. But at least we can profit off these future java coders!

    It doesn't look like homework assignment, rather than a task. For a competition, maybe?
