MASTERMIND-MANIA

In the game of Mastermind-Mania, you must correctly identify the proper filler assigments for four of the six available squares (the other two squares will be blank).  After each guess, the game will indicate the number of fillers which are in the RIGHT squares or position, and the number of fillers which are in the WRONG position.  However, you are not told which fillers are right and which are wrong!  You have but eight attempts to solve the puzzle!

You start the game by assigning fillers to four of the six available squares.  This is accomplished by choosing a square (1-6) and then a filler (1-6) - the game will prompt you accordingly.  Once you have assign four and only four fillers, you may PROCESS your guess by entering a "P" when you are prompted for a square.  The game will then procede to return the RIGHT/WRONG status described in the first paragraph.  Afterwards, you can modify the fillers as you see fit and PROCESS them again.  If you ever need to clear or erase a filler from a square, then choose "C" (CLEAR) when prompted to enter a filler.


REMEMBER - you only have eight attempts to solve the puzzle. and more importantly, your win/loss status is saved and updated for everyone's viewing pleasure - so THINK!!  If you do decide you want to quit, you can enter a "Q" at either the square or color prompt (this is regarded as a loss at it will be recorded accordingly).  If you can not solve the puzzle or if you decide to quit, the game will be kind enough to show you the answer.

Well, what else can be said....HAVE FUN !!
