<H1 align=center>Imperfect World Of Robots</H1>
<P>
IWOR is a programming game. It simulate a world in which robots controlled by programs can live in it, work, defend their tribe and even born new children!
</P>
<P>
Unlike other programming games IWOR is not just about game (competition between robots). Long term goal of this project is to simulate a world with its own rules for these robots where they can really live in it.
</P>
<P>
The greatest feature of IWOR among other projects is its ability to let robots cloning. Here some other features of this project:
<UL>
<LI>Using 'socket' to communicate between robots and the server let robots run in separate machines (Even with different
operating systems).<BR>
<LI>Although server itself writes in C++, robots can be constructed in almost any other languages.<BR>
<LI>Robots and server communicate using simple messages which makes it easy to constructing robots.<BR>
<LI>New worlds with defferent rules can be created by the user.
</LI>
</UL>

<H2>What is a programming game?</H2>
</P>
<P>
A programming game is a computer game where the player has no direct influence on the course of the game. Instead, a
computer program or script is written in some programming language in order to control the actions of the characters
(robots).
</P>
<P>
There's a difference between this project and other common programming games:
In must of the programming games designed so far, it's not important how intelligence robots are. Winning or
losing a game is depended on what strategy a certain robot uses. If condition changes, it will fail to win. In this
imperfect world, must intelligence robot will live longer than the others, born more children and make a bigger generation.
