I think you will really enjoy the additional capabilities available by adding the following routines.
As things are added to the program the inter-relationships become much more complicated. To give you an idea of what I mean consider this: If you have two sets of three objects each, you could take one from each set and come up with 9 different combinations. However, if you add a third set and took one from each you could have 27 combinations. Another set would provide for 81! Obviously it gets complicated very quickly.
This is the same type of thing that occurs as you add routines to a program – it soon becomes almost impossible to check every possible combination. Because of this I feel that all future updates to the program be approached from the assumption that all previous improvements have been made. Some will not really be necessary of course, but it is now too complicated to check out every possible combination you may select so the following routines assume you have already included the changes from the first issue and the original manual. It is also assumed that you will add all the routines from this issue.
I am also planning another issue which will probably be the biggest so far (and maybe the last if I don’t get more ideas). It will elaborate on the TALLY routine by showing how to change which line can hold the numeric information and how to add more lines of numeric data and handle it in a slightly different manner. А further improvement in saving data will be offered along with a cursor wrap around feature, more memory savings, a way to printout first names first when your files list last name first, a way to repeatedly create a framework file whose details can be filled in later, and for all you Spectrum owners (or those with emulators) there will be instructions for using Profile with those systems with or without Sinclair microdrives! I am already using all these improvements and hope to have the newsletter available soon for the usual $6.00.
