Lines: 14 In lemonade stand, you had to decide how much lemonade to make (after figuring its cost per glass), How much to charge per glass and how much to spend on advertising (signs taped to nearby streetcorners). The program would throw variables like bad weather, or mom's sugar shortage at you and you had to cope. It was a pretty good, simple economic simulation. It didn't have reasonable range checking though. The more you advertised, the more people would come by your stand. My brother figured out that if you advertised enought you could charge $50 for a glass of lemonade and still sell it... Seymour
