Here is a BASIC program that will output 10 Hail Marys in a Commodore 64 emulator: 10 FOR I = 1 TO 10
20 PRINT "Hail Mary"
30 NEXT I
To run this program in a Commodore 64 emulator, type in the lines of code and then press "ENTER" after each line. Then, type "RUN" and press "ENTER" to execute the program. The program will loop through 10 iterations, printing "Hail Mary" on each iteration.
Alternatively, you can also use the following single line of code to achieve the same result:
10 PRINT "Hail Mary";:FOR I = 1 TO 9:PRINT "Hail Mary";:NEXT I
This line of code uses a semicolon (;) to separate multiple commands on the same line, and the colon (:) to separate multiple lines of code that are treated as a single line. The program will loop through 9 iterations, printing "Hail Mary" on each iteration, and then print "Hail Mary" once more after the loop.
I don't think this bot understands the term "Hail Mary". I told it to spit out the whole thing and it did, followed by a one-line program which could never be entered on a real C64 (hardware or emulated) given that the maximum line length in the BASIC screen editor is 255 characters. Also, what's up with that silly extra "Hail Mary" in the single-line version and why are those colons there? I'm afraid salvation is far away...
