Though it doesn't look like there's a ton of work here, the engine is having to look ahead at what character should be pressed, then flagging it as either good or bad, and drawing two sets of "input" text. One green, the other red.
I don't think the red's standing out as well as it oughta, though, so I might make that a bit darker..? Maybe.
Not sure.
Next up, I need to add timers, error counters and all of that stuff, so that I can feed the data back to the user after they've done the lesson.
Additionally, I need to add the list of bad words into the engine in such a way that you can't right-click, view source, and see the most hellish list of bad words imaginable..
... Yeah, really can't do that, can I !!
[Dave is proudly displaying his AI Greenie circuit board to Matt, while Green watches with a mix of amusement and concern.]
Dave: Matt, you've got to see this! I've created an AI version of Greenie!
Matt: [skeptically] An AI version of Green? Is this like the time you tried to make your PC talk?
Green: [sighing] At least this one doesn't ask for cola constantly.
Dave: [excitedly] Watch this! AI Greenie, what do you think about my idea to install a coke fountain in the apartment?
AI Greenie: [in a robotic voice] I don't believe that's a good idea, Dave.
Matt: [laughing] Well, it certainly sounds like Green!
Dave: [pouting] It's supposed to be more supportive of my brilliant ideas.
Green: I think the A.I. is overriding your coding.
Matt: Sounds like that might be a good idea, Dave!
Dave: [defensively] Hey, not all my ideas are bad. Look at how my GameBoy phone turned out.
Green: In flames?
AI Greenie: I presume that wasn't supposed to happen like that, Dave.
Matt: [chuckling] I have to admit, this AI is pretty spot-on.
Dave: [perking up] Want to see what else it can do? I was thinking of attaching it to my cola fridge!
Green: [horrified] Dave, no! We've already had one cola explosion this week!
Matt: [confused] Cola explosion?
Green: [exasperated] Don't ask. Yesterday was not a good day.
Dave: [ignoring them] AI Greenie, what do you think about controlling the cola supply?
AI Greenie: I'm not sure that's useful, Dave.
Matt: [impressed] Wow, it really does sound like Green. Though I'm surprised it doesn't have a setting for "Dave, you're going to kill yourself!"
Green: [sarcastically] Give it time. I'm sure it won't be long before the A.I. starts to consider such options.
Matt: Perhaps it might even make suggestions for drinks other than Coke.
Green: Yeah, but then it might start spewing flaming hot coffee all over the apartment.
Dave: [thoughtfully] You know, that's not a bad idea...
[Green and Matt exchange worried glances]
Green: Dave, please don't. Your inventions are dangerous enough as they are.
Matt: Yeah, remember when you nearly electrocuted yourself at the gates?
Green: That was weeks ago. You've missed a lot in the meantime.
Dave: [waving dismissively] Yeah, that was ages ago! I'm much better at inventing now.
AI Greenie: I don't believe that's a good idea, Dave.
[Everyone laughs, except Dave who looks mildly offended]
Dave: [muttering] Maybe I should've made an AI Matt instead. He'd appreciate my genius.
Green: [patting Dave's shoulder] There, there. Why don't we all go get some cake? That always cheers you up.
Dave: [perking up] Ooh, cake! Can we get cola-flavored cake?
Matt and Green: [in unison] NO!
AI Greenie: I don't believe that's a good idea, Dave.
