The only constant in life, is death.....
("from StarTrek Generations")=20

Seriously, A constant is something that never changes,
it always remains the same....thereby the meaning
CONSTANT.

A Function is usefull when trying to figure something out.
* return a (value or text) from the user, calculate etc.
you need to feed in info massage that info and
return something of use.=20

In the attached file you'll find lots of thing

constants
functions
procedures
file I/O
user I/O
setting up graphics modes
palette utility
display of various boxes

it's pretty loaded but isn't very functional
I'll leave that up to you....
