If you don't know what Tamagotchi is, take a look at the [[wp:Tamagotchi|Wikipedia]] page about it.

This task is about creating a Tamagotchi emulator, a virtual pet that you must take care of.

Your virtual pet must, like real pets, at least: get hungry, get bored, age and poop!
Against hunger, you must create a way to feed it. Against boredom, you must play with or pet it. The poop must be cleaned, otherwise the pet might get sick and if it is not cured, it might die from its disease. Finally, the pet should grow older and eventually die.

On screen, your program must display the virtual pet status data - age, hunger and happiness levels, when the pet poops, its poop must also be displayed. Ah, well, an avatar of the pet must be there too, but I guess that's obvious!

What else? Well, use your creativityโ€ฆ
Every pet needs a name. What kind of games, or โ€˜mini gamesโ€™ one can play with his pet? And so on!

But, above of all, have fun!

EchoLisp

The tamagotchi status is saved in permanent storage. The tamagotchi cycles can be started manually, or in the '''preferences''' function, or at predefined intervals : '''every''' function. The following code may be loaded from the EchoLisp library : (load 'tamagotchi). This tamagotchi does not play, but gets bored, and needs to talk. It must be feed two times between each cycle. It will die at age around 42 (42 cycles).
