/* Introduction to C++ Tortoise and Hare Problem by Dillon Morse
 * =============================================================
 * Simulation of a race. Both the tortoise and the hare begin at square 1 of
 * 70. Each square represents a possible position along the race track. The
 * finish is square 70. You win when you reach or pass square 70.
 *
 * There is a clock that ticks once per second. With each tick your program
 * should adjust the position of the racers according to the table below.
 *
 * Use variables to keep track of the positions. A racer cannot slip past
 * square 1 into a square <= 0.
 *
 * Generate the table by producing a random integer i, 1 <= i <= 10. For the
 * tortoise, perform a fast plod when 1 <= i <= 5, a slip when 6 <= i <= 7 or a
 * slow plod when 8 <= i <= 10. Similarly for the hare.
 *
 * Begin the race by printing:
   * BANG !!!
   * AND THEY'RE OFF !!!!!
 *
 * For each tick of the clock, print a 70-position line showing the letter T
 * for the Tortoise's position and H for the hare. If the racers land on the
 * same square, the tortoise bites the hare and you must print
 *  OUCH !!!
 * beginning at that position. All positions other than the T, the H, or the
 * OUCH !!! should be a blank.
 *
 * After printing each line, whether either animal has reached or passed square
 * 70. If so, print the winner and terminate the simulation. If the tortoise
 * wins, print TORTOISE WINS!!!, otherwise print HARE WINS? If both win on the
 * same clock tick, print TIE.
