This version of the Battleship Game locates a ship on a random integer point in the first quadrant (or on an adjacent axis). Your job is to determine the location of the ship by making guesses. After each guess, the program will respond by telling you how far your guess is from the actual location of the ship. Some time in the future, when I have more expertise and time, it would be interesting to construct a version that has a graphic of the first quadrant, and that allows the user to select a point by clicking on it. Although interesting, such a version may not be any better in 'teaching' users the first quadrant numering system and the location of points. There are a number of versions of the Battleship program listed on the main battleship page.
