Hi,
I am giving a seminar on C# interop and I would like to feature an original
sample class to stimulate some interest.
Does anybody want to write an open-source ConsoleApp || WinApp that, given a
starting English word, calls Babylon for translations in N languages and
plays a game with the user assigning one point for every
language/translation pair entered? (I am a licenced user for 2004 :-)
Example:
word: Table
User enters: de Tisch, es mesa, pt mesa, it tavolo, ...
I would obviously give credit to the author and handle everything
open-source!
Other interop tasks could be "linking to MS Word and assigning a point for
every synonym for the base language" or allowing multiple networked players
to challenge each other or play in teams (20 seconds for every English word,
1 point per answer, etc.)
Just a thought...
I will resort to the traditional DCOM Hello World, Fibonacci series or
something as boring as that otherwise. :-) I just can't spare the time to
look into this right now.
Regards,
Marco
