Delphi special button

Hi !
I have a project for computer programming which means that i must do a calculator. Anyway, i have done this.
But my project must include also a special button and i have no idea what can i do because i have spent just one week working in delphi and i am not so accustomed with this program.
I just hope that anybody knows what can i do with my "special button"...
It can be anything: fireworks, colour, anything. But i don't have so much inspiration.
Thanks for your support !
Have a great night !!

Re: Delphi special button

Here are some ideas:
  • have it generate a random number between 0 and 999,999,999,999,999
  • have it start asking math questions to the user, and add a highscore chart at the end
  • when the button is pressed, make the calculator count down from ten, and when it gets to zero, have it "explode"
I hope they help!

Haha yes. You could have a self-destruct as a "special" extra way to close out of the program.

Re: Delphi special button

Hello,
Thanks for your quick answer.
The third one is a very good idea. The countdown and the explode effect are brilliant, but do you know such a code?
Because i don't know how to create this special button.
Thanks !

You might have missed this, but we're not a forum dedicated to the programming language "Delphi" but are instead we are a forum dedicates to first robotics. The team that created this site had Delphi as a large sponsor.

Someone here might be able to answer, but I wouldn't hold your breath. Good luck in finding what you're looking for.
