I had the same problem but with 3 hr exams that take 1/2 an hour. The reason was that I did Further Maths at the same time as my maths course, but still had to take the same exams as all the normal maths people. So I finished everything very quickly and the exams still dragged on and on... I wish I was computer savvy enough to have been able to play calculator games then. The only guy who could was doing other A levels in Computer Science and could write programs quite well. I am clueless however.

I GOT IT TO WORK! Yay! Means I don't have to draw the graph by hand!

We also have quite a few games, the ones I use most are Pacman and a racing game. Tetris etc. are circling through the school, and I tried to program an Arkanoid-type game - gave up though.
