''Hamurabi'' is a 1969 text-based game of land and resource management and is one of the earliest computer games. Its name is a shortening of Hammurabi, reduced to fit an eight-character limit. ==History== Doug Dyment wrote ''The Sumer Game''〔()() DECUS Program Library Catalog, p. F - 1〕 in 1968 as a demonstration program for the FOCAL programming language, programming it on a DEC PDP-8. The game has often been inaccurately attributed to Richard Merrill, the designer of FOCAL. Once a version of BASIC was released for the PDP-8, David H. Ahl ported it to BASIC. The game spread beyond mainframes when Ahl published an expanded version of it in ''BASIC Computer Games'', the first best-selling computer book.〔 〕 The expanded version was renamed ''Hamurabi'' and added an end-of-game performance appraisal.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 title = BASIC Computer Games: Hammurabi ) 〕 This version was then ported to many different microcomputers and published as a type-in program in many books and magazines throughout the 1980s. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hamurabi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
