Keeping track of Rust implementations of various games

[AnthonyMichaelTDM]

As it seems like this project is heading towards including Rust, I thought it'd be useful to track our progress in one centralized location

Note: these are just the ones I know of, feel free to comment corrections, and the like, I'll try to keep this list up-to-date for the foreseeable future :)

Here is my Rust version of 74_rock_paper_scissors
#599
#599 opened by [DLotts]
https://github.com/coding-horror/basic-computer-games/issues?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aopen+author%3ADLotts

I might work on Nim next. I converted this to Tiny Basic in the 1970's. Not sure how -- because Tiny basic had only one array and this thing has several.

[AnthonyMichaelTDM]

awesome, I'll add it to the list

[DLotts]

65_Nim #632 by me was merged. I saw another closed merge request for Rust:
05 Bagels #627 author Atikste was merged 2 days ago

[coding-horror]

Rust is now formally one of the 10 supported languages, rejoice and let the ports continue! 🙌

[AnthonyMichaelTDM]

Awesome, glad to hear it

[MartinThoma]

@AnthonyMichaelTDM I've just updated the script which can automatically generate a markdown file with the current implementations: https://github.com/coding-horror/basic-computer-games/blob/main/00_Utilities/TODO.md

[MartinThoma]

It would be nice if this could be run automatically every day / after each commit to main so that we always have an up-to-date list. I have no clue if that is possible though.

[AnthonyMichaelTDM]

this may help?

[Jay-0331]

I converted the 47_Hi-lo to rust. hope it is okay.

[AnthonyMichaelTDM]

I converted the 47_Hi-lo to rust. hope it is okay.

Yeah sure, I'll take a look later today

[ugurkupeli]

Did 96_Word for rust. Made a pull request (I am new to contributing so I hope that's ok).

[ugurkupeli]

Also ported 29_Craps but refraining from creating a PR.

[AnthonyMichaelTDM]

awesome, thanks

[ugurkupeli]

62_Mugwump was merged.
PRs for 29_Craps, 64_Nicomachus and 81_Splat are open.
Currently working on 90_Tower.

[ugurkupeli]

And in the OP list it should be 96_Word -- not 86_Word.
