    The following text excerpt was taken from the Star Trek Novel, "Trek
To Madworld", written by Stephen Goldin, (c) 1979. It is from this text that
I was able to formulate the basis for this game:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 11, pages 107 and 108:

    The travelers left the elevator and found themselves in an immense
darkened room, illuminated only by the light from large electronic score-
boards on the walls overhead. Each board was at least twenty meters by ten
in size, and covered with thousands of tiny squares, some of which were lit
by lights of various colors. "Behold, Mr. Spock", Enowil said, "a game of
fascinating complexity. Each square you see on the board contains a number--
positive or negative, integral or fractional, rational or irrational, real
or imaginary. You play against the computer, which has been specifically
designed to select it's squares at random so that you--or I, for that matter,
cannot predict in advance which squares it will play. You pick a certain
number of squares, depending on which turn it is; on your first turn you
pick one square, on the second you pick two, on the third three, and so
forth. On the computer's first turn it picks one, on it's second four, on
it's third nine, and so forth. You keep picking, alternating turns with the
machine, until the entire board has been lit up.

    "The object of the game is that the numbers you pick must establish a
given pattern--for instance, to give a simplistic example, all the numbers
you pick during a given turn should add to an even positive integer. The
machine, of course, acting at random, will tend to foul up your subsequent
turns, since once a square is lit the other player can't use it. As I said,
that was a simplistic example; when I myself play, I prefer a more challeng-
ing requirement--perhaps that the sum of the numbers I pick be a perfect
square or that the sum of the numbers I pick, when divided by the number of
the turn, turns out to be a prime number. The number of variations is limited
only by my imagination--and fortunately I haven't reached the end of that
yet. Would you care for a game, Mr. Spock?"

    "By all means", the Vulcan said. "It sounds fascinating."

    "Let's make it easy for your first try, shall we? All the numbers within
the squares will be positive integers, and the sum of the numbers at the end
of each turn must be a multiple of thirteen. Have fun."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Needless to say, Spock was able to just barely edge out the computer and
win HIS shot at the game. The "Star Trek" text which appears inside the game
itself was also taken from this book, Chapter 11, pages 106 and 107.

    For those Star Trek buffs out there, Enowil was an eccentric Organian
who lived in a bubble created by himself to be away from the "REAL" world,
which he found to be rather droll. The Enterprise, along with a Klingon and
Romulan ship are brought inside Enowils bubble to help him solve a problem
he says he's been trying to find a solution to for 2 centuries. He says his
world is MISSING something, and promises a reward of ANYTHING WITHIN HIS
POWER to the group who can tell him what he's missing. To find out who,
if anyone, was able to solve Enowils problem, READ THE BOOK!!!

    I hope you enjoy this game as much as I do. It was fun to program!
