Aaaah, that's a big relief. I was already afraid Olympus created a new
arithmic system, called base-American aka Americal, sorta binairy,
hexadecimal and octal combined. But although being a computer
programmer, I just couldn't break the code of the following samples:
10 * 2 = G
G + 10 = F
G * 2 = PC
S + P = S
T + i = T
700 + 7 = 77
100 + 1 = 88
4Ti + 1 = ???
if ( Wallet.Contents >= Zuiko.Price )
Equipment.Add( Zuiko );
else
MessageBox( "Oooh wee why mee" );
