Solutions
Q1. A tactile switch.
Q2. Zero (0) volts, resulting in Binary zero (0) at the input register.
IN8 = 0 when whisker is pressed. IN8 = 1 when whisker is not pressed.
Q3. IN7 = 1 means the right whisker is not pressed.
IN7 = 0 means the right whisker is pressed.
IN5 = 1 means the left whisker is not pressed.
IN5 = 0 means the left whisker is pressed.
Q4. The
GOSUB command performs the actual jump. The IF...THEN command is used
to decide which subroutine to jump to. That decision is based on conditions,
which are logical statements that evaluate to true or false.
Q5. The program can check for one condition, and if that condition is true, it can
check for another condition within the first condition.
E1. The key to solving this problem is to use a second
CRSRXY command that will
place the right whisker state in the proper place on the screen. To line up with
the headings, the text should start on column 9 of row 3.

' {$STAMP BS2} ' Stamp directive.
' {$PBASIC 2.5} ' PBASIC directive.
