EOC week 3: Jeopardy

Build in the game Jeopardy is a quiz game featuring different types of category. It is an answer and question show where contestant are given clues in the form of answer. It starts with numbers from 100 being the easiest questions till 500 as the hardest questions. The contestant has to press the buzzer as fast as they could so they answer the question first. If a contestant answers the question, he get points or on national television money. If the contestant answers the question wrong he gets minus points or money. Two examples of Trivia questions in the books are: “When an idea, design or expression does not belong to anyone under the patent laws, it is said to exist in the public domain and may be used by anyone for any purpose without permission for its originator or author. Any invention that is published, put in public use, sold or placed on sale more than one year prior to the filing of a patent application. Answer: Public Domain. Another sample question is “The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) assigns numbered classes and subclasses to inventions for the purpose of classifying patents issued on them and facilitating retrieval of these patents in the course of a patent search.” Answer: Classification of Patent. Jeopardy is a really fun game usually use in television for any types of age. It is usually classified as Math, Science, History, Arts, and Sports. This game was created by Merv Griffin in 1964. In class we are creating a jeopardy game where we the students make our own questions and let our other fellow students answer the question. Sounds like a fun game. We’ll find out how it goes next week 
