Hello,
Economy-x-Talk has released a brand new game called TwistAWord. Goal
of the game is to create sentences from jumbled words, which form a
saying or expression. While this game is just fun to play, it also
helps you improve your language skills in eight different languages.

Why? The loading of the text is at the first line of the handler. I made a
stack with a lot of data and everything runs fine; the fields show what they
ought to. I also assumed that there was a little navigation in getting the
data from another card, per my reading of the script, which I put in,

Another approach is to use Step in your repeat loop. See this:
on test
repeat with a = 1 to 10 step 2
put return & a*3 after msg
put return & sqrt(a+1) after msg
end repeat
end test
For odd numbers a*3 will be put, and for even numbers the square root
of the number will be pu
That's even better. Thanks. Never heard of step.
