FROM multi-media and computer demonstrations and games to quizzes and a speed calculation contest, St Joseph's College students were busily engaged in activities during the Mathematics and Computer Week held recently.

The annual event was organised jointly by the school's Mathematics Society and Electronics and Computer Society.

The five members of the central organising committee - Augustine Chin Tian-hsi, Cyril Kwok Yat-fai, Allen Tin Ying-kit, Atkin Lui Sze-ming and Valence Chow Chung-mo - were delighted by the enthusiastic response.

For the exhibition part, the multi-media demonstration showed the latest technology on simultaneous audio-visual display by connecting different medium like the Hi-Fi or even the digital drum band to the computer.

The game stall was characterised by its originality because all the programmes of the computerised games such as Master-mind and Tick-tack-toe were written by the students.

The Master-mind programme was a creation of third-former Allen Yuen who won the Computer Programme Contest held earlier by the two societies.
