 * By Eamonn McManus, Trinity College Dublin <emcmanus (at) cs.tcd.ie>.
 *
 * The operation of this program mimics that of the standard Unix game
 * `arithmetic'.  I've made it as close as I could manage without examining
 * the source code.  The principal differences are:
 *
 * The method of biasing towards numbers that had wrong answers in the past
 * is different; original `arithmetic' seems to retain the bias forever,
 * whereas this program lets the bias gradually decay as it is used.
 *
 * Original `arithmetic' delays for some period (3 seconds?) after printing
 * the score.  I saw no reason for this delay, so I scrapped it.
 *
 * There is no longer a limitation on the maximum range that can be supplied
 * to the program.  The original program required it to be less than 100.
 * Anomalous results may occur with this program if ranges big enough to
 * allow overflow are given.
 *
 * I have obviously not attempted to duplicate bugs in the original.  It
 * would go into an infinite loop if invoked as `arithmetic / 0'.  It also
 * did not recognise an EOF in its input, and would continue trying to read
 * after it.  It did not check that the input was a valid number, treating any
 * garbage as 0.  Finally, it did not flush stdout after printing its prompt,
 * so in the unlikely event that stdout was not a terminal, it would not work
 * properly.
