@marodo2712, Boolean Logic is a way to define logic gates and circuits. You can basically only have 4 types of gate.
AND
OR
NOT
XOR (exclusive OR)
If you mess about with 'to be or not to be' for long enough you can demonstrate that the answer is 1 but it doesn't actually work 'cos of spelling and logic fails.
I would hazard a guess that the number of people who got the initial reference immediately probably have grey hair and a bit of solder on their cardigan.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

WAY above my head.
I learned BBC Basic back the early eighties, IF, THEN, GOTO, ELSE, AND etc. I'm guessing there may be some equivalence? (or not, I'm not sure i know what i know anymore).
Have the app nerds built the colour blind piste map reading app yet? Come on guys, it's near the end of October and he'll be off soon!

Thank you everyone for input most of it was way above my brain grade, not for one second being ungratefull but I was hoping for low tec answer. When I did my Lamp test for Yachtmaster the 3 D cardboard framed glasses worked a treat and I was hoping a similar trick is out there.
Marodo2712 your app was fun and clever but I should have said in my request I prefer squaddie proof and take anywhere low tec solutions. I am experimenting with felt tip pens to accentuate or diminish colours, unfortunately the result changes quite rapidly.
Thanks again everyone.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

In that vein. I don't known what the affect will be to someone of your sight characteristics, but logically Cyan lens in front of you eyes "should" have potential to change something when viewing red ink image. Whether that would be good or bad you'd have to find out.
How about taking a piste map to a ski shop and viewing it through all of the goggle lenses they have available to see if there can be a significant improvement to your sensitivity in the details printed?
Do Oakley make a Hi-Cyan?  or one of the green tints?
Perhaps worth a sortie, I was in Bartlett ski Saturday where they have almost a complete wall of different goggles.

Well done! The world would be a nicer and better place if we all had a little more courage to admit when we are wrong.
I learned years ago that, when driving, if I inadvertently cut someone up or nicked their parking place a simple wave of the hand to say 'sorry' goes a very long way. We all make mistakes. [Don't tell my wife that I admitted I make mistakes]

Noooooooo bad/lazy branching with no logical return. Gosub everytime. (With the exception using of goto to terminate, but that's even frowned upon.
Some of us remember coding to take account of rotational latency on disks to get the best performance, or using octal on a switch panel to boot sperry univac mainframes.
And don't get me started on jump keys. 4,13 or 3,16.

@ansta1,
The univac wasn't based on the olde Marconi 920 series computers was it?
It's just that I used them and they had a monitor panel which utilized an 18 bit word - so we always used Octal. Jump instructions were 8 and 7 though
PS Sorry to the OP, this topic has gone waaaay off piste
