The Code Challenge

1. Copy the folder called Code Challenge from the Handouts folder to your personal drive.
   
   
2. In the folder, you will find the CodeChallenge.exe file, which is a working version of the program. Use this file to understand how the program should work.
   
   
3. The purpose of this program is to test the user's memory. A card is selected, and the user must find the matching card until all pairs are matched. At that point, the game is over.
   
   
4. The original of this program was a properly working program. However, in this copy, several typical programming errors have been made. It is your task to troubleshoot the program and get it running properly.
   
   
5. As you troubleshoot the program to correct the code, you must add comments for every change you make and mistake you find. If you find an error in the code, write a comment describing the error and comment out the line of code. Then re-write the code properly.
   
   
6. If you find code that does not follow the naming conventions your have learned, write a comment describing the error, comment out the code, and re-write the code using the proper conventions. Rename the objects and procedures if necessary.
   
   
7. Note that there are spelling errors in the program as well - you should correct these.
   
   
8. One final challenge - the program allows the user to double cick on a card to get a match. See if you can write the code that will not permit the user to do this.
   
   
9. Continue this process until the program runs without errors.
   
   
10. When you have finished, send an e-mail to your teacher and ask your teacher to mark the Code Challenge.
