A programminggame is a computer game where the player has no direct influence on the course of the game. Instead, a computer program or script is written in some domain specific programming language in order to control the actions of the characters usually robot s, tank s or bacteria , which seek to destroy each other . Most programming games can be considered environments of digital organism s, related to artificial life simulations. A few programming games of note include AI Wars , Core War , and RoboWar , among many others. There are different tournament s and leagues for the programming games where the characters can compete with each other. Usually a script is optimized for a special strategy. Programming games may be derived from almost any other type of game. For example, the World Computer Chess Championship consists of matches between programs written for the abstract strategy game of chess . Also, some non computer games borrow elements of programming games in the board game RoboRally , players arrange cards to program their pieces with a sequence of moves, causing moves to be made without the knowledge of one s opponents preceding moves.

Darwin was a programminggame invented in August 1961 by Victor A. Vyssotsky , Robert Morris Sr. , and M. Douglas McIlroy . Dennis Ritchie is sometimes incorrectly cited as a co author, but was not involved. The game was developed at Bell Labs , and played on an IBM 7090 mainframe there. The game was only played for a few weeks before Morris developed an ultimate program that eventually brought the game to an end, as no one managed to produce anything that could defeat it. Description The game consisted of a program called the umpire and a designated section of the computer s memory known as the arena , into which two or more small programs, written by the players, were loaded. The programs were written in 7090 machine code , and could call a number of functions provided by the umpire in order to probe other locations within the arena, kill opposing programs, and claim vacant memory for copies of themselves. The game ended after a set amount of time, or when copies of only one program remained alive. The player who wrote the last surviving program was declared winner. Up to 20 memory locations within each program fewer in later versions of the game could be designated as protected . If one of these protected locations was probed by another program, the umpire would immediately transfer control to the program that was probed. This program would then continue to execute until it, in turn, probed a protected location of some other program, and so forth. While the programs were responsible for copying and Relocation computer science relocating themselves, they were forbidden from ...

Unreferenced date December 2008 br Dramatic programming in the UK , or television drama and television drama series in the United States , is television program content that is scripted and normally fiction al along the lines of a traditional drama . This excludes, for example, sports television , television news , reality show and game show s, stand up comedy and variety show s. Also, by convention, the term is not generally usually used for situation comedy or soap opera . Most dramatic television programming falls within other standard categories such as miniseries , made for TV movies or certain rather circumscribed dramatic genres. One major category of dramatic programing, particularly in the United States, is Crime Drama . Drama series are watched on public television by people who relate their lives to what they see, eastenders for the city people, corrie for the country people and emmerdale farm for the people who live with animals. Pobly cwm is aimed by S4C at the welsh, as a welsh speaking drama series. Some examples of BBC dramatic programming would be the serials The Six Wives of Henry VIII TV series The Six Wives of Henry VIII or Our Friends in the North .
