*
* The operation of this program mimics that of the standard Unix game
* `arithmetic'. I've made it as close as I could manage without examining
* the source code. The principal differences are:
*
* The method of biasing towards numbers that had wrong answers in the past
* is different; original `arithmetic' seems to retain the bias forever,
* whereas this program lets the bias gradually decay as it is used.
*
* Original `arithmetic' delays for some period (3 seconds?) after printing
* the score. I saw no reason for this delay, so I scrapped it.
*
* There is no longer a limitation on the maximum range that can be supplied
* to the program. The original program required it to be less than 100.
* Anomalous results may occur with this program if ranges big enough to
* allow overflow are given.
*
* I have obviously not attempted to duplicate bugs in the original. It
* would go into an infinite loop if invoked as `arithmetic / 0'. It also
* did not recognise an EOF in its input, and would continue trying to read
* after it. It did not check that the input was a valid number, treating any
* garbage as 0. Finally, it did not flush stdout after printing its prompt,
* so in the unlikely event that stdout was not a terminal, it would not work
* properly.
