= Assignment 1 - Calvin and Hobbes in a red wagon rolling down a rocky hill =

[[Image(thumbnail.png,right)]]

== Project Overview ==

Calvin and Hobbes are comic book characters who frequently are found
zooming down a hill in a red wagon.  This project abstractly represents
this passtime of theirs with a wagon bouncing down a rocky hill.  Try
to avoid hitting rocks by jumping at the right time, but just like in
real life, it's not always possible to avoid a rough ride.  A score
is assigned and written to standard out when you exit.

== Interaction ==

 * Keyboard: Push any key to jump up in the air in the wagon.
 * Mouse: None

== Files ==
 * assignment1.cpp - The one and only source file
 * assignment - The executable
 * Makefile - A very simple, strict, yet sadly not very portable makefile
 * README - This

== Compilation Instructions ==
Compiled in Linux with gcc-3.3.1 and glut-3.7.1.

$ make

== Requirements ==

An object under keyboard/mouse control with four moving parts.

Wagon, wheels, wagon's handle, passengers, ... there are at least four
unique moving parts in there.  The keyboard control is simple, but I
think it's elegant.
