You have to earn the money to play the fruit machine in this educational gambling game written by Roland Waddilove of Widnes, Cheshire.

Feed 10 pence into the slot machine and see if it produces three fruit of the same kind. If it does, you win a 50 pence jackpot but if you lose and run out of money, you must answer a few simple mathematics questions to obtain some more. You can choose how many questions you want to answer, in several categories - adding, subtracting, division and multiplication. If your times tables are a little rusty, you can even consult whatever table you like.

One-Armed Bandit was written for the Electron, and will also run on the BBC B.
