 Some interesting things I could add to the
 tamagotchi programme which shouldn't be too hard:
 
-* ~~create a loop~~
-* ~~give it happiness~~
-* ~~give it points for hungriness~~
-* ~~add the guessing game and increase the happiness by one point when you finished the game~~
-* ~~create a list with things you can do~~
-* ~~pet it to increase happiness~~
 * poke it to make it speak, pokes let it loose a happiness point
-* ~~add max values depending on the status~~
 * sleeping with all values with over 50% full heals the pet if it has lost health
 * add pooping and cleaning function
 * let it get sick if it's health is low, by random chance or if there's too much poop
-* ~~let it age~~
 * decrease the hunger value after x seconds
 * add sleep function, you have to switch the lights off otherwise it will have nightmare and loose one health point.
 * add the possibility to get sick. Maybe compare two random numbers.
