On the Teaching of Russian Numerals by Using an Online Computer.
Ahmad, K.; And Others
Association for Literary and Linguistic Computing Bulletin, v6 n3 p235-42 1978
Some of the problems facing undergraduates learning Russian can be dealt with effectively by using an online computer. A Russian numerals drill program (RUNEX) is described which aims to help the student in tackling the morphological arbitrariness and some aspects of the syntax of the Russian numerals. Paradigms are given for the numerals five, two, and one, and the two modes in which RUNEX operates are presented. The use of program arrays, the adoption of FORTRAN to write the program, and the division of the set of numerals (1-49) into subsets are discussed. An appendix presents a sample output from program RUNEX. (Author/AMH)
