First, let me start out by saying that I used to be good in math. Yadda yadda, you kow the story. Now to the juice.

Think of working for the Navy in a submarine, and then being at home for a while (I am neither, and am not even sure if it's the navy in the sub's). You miss your old familiar *beep**beep**beep* from the radar. You also miss looking at the green screen in front of you showing that line going in circles over and over and over again.

How would you do this in QBasic? I mean, how would you setup that whole scenario?

I don't necessarily want the blip to be on the radar, but the screen itself would be nice. Anyone know how to do it?

awww man, doing this in basic will take some coding, unless you only want a line going around and around, then what you need to do, is get the equation of a circle and another equation for the radius, then have the position of the radius change by increments of one or .5, and have qbasic draw you that line.
