The Final Verdict ouija.cpp works perfectly. It correctly answered "Yes" when I asked if it knew my name. It answered "No" when I asked if it was a random number generator.

Last week, I decided to chase that feeling. I wrote ouija.cpp . A Ouija board is, traditionally, a flat board with letters, numbers, and the words "YES," "NO," and "GOODBYE." A planchette (that little heart-shaped piece of wood) slides around to spell out messages from "the other side."
