This program is my version of the DOS program from the 1983 cult classic 'War Games', In this movie, a young hacker unwittingly accesses a military supercomputer programmed to predict outcomes of nuclear war. Thinking it is a computer game, he runs a simulation. The computer, tied into the nuclear weapons control system and unable to tell the difference between simulation and reality, attempts to start World War III.

This game features the use of several C++ constructs (arrays, loops, etc) and is purposely slowed down in many places to simulate the output of a 1980's computer :-=)
