As many of you who entered Gordon Young’s program from T-S Horizons discovered, the program doesn’t work as published. The problem occurred during the paste-up stage of the magazine when yours truly accidentally rearranged the machine code listing in issue #5. The fault was our own and Gordon Young’s program works beautifully, as many of you have found out.
We tried to send corrections to everyone who wrote to us saying they had problems with it. A few people found the error and corrected the problem themselves. Chuck Peterson discovered a simple way to correct the problem and sent the following note:
One way [to correct the program] is to re-enter all the codes in the 1 REM statement. This is horribly time consuming. A better way is to let the computer correct the problem for you. The program [enclosed] does this. Here’s how to use it.
