The painting is an original painting created by Virginie MOREAU (virginie.moreau@free.fr) in 2001. Its name is 'Spices Seller in Egypt'. It is released under the GPL licence.

To balance the scales, move the masses on the left or the right side. The masses can be arranged in any order.

In the text entry, enter one command per line, to control your boat. Commands supported are displayed between the two entry areas. The 'left' and 'right' commands must be followed by an angle in degrees. The angle value is also called a 'parameter' to the left or right command. By default 45 degrees is used. The 'forward' command accepts a distance parameter. By default 1 is used. For example: - left 90: Make a perpendicular left turn - forward 10: Go forward for 10 units (as displayed on the ruler). The goal is to reach the right of the screen (the red line). When done, you can try to improve your program and start a new race with the same weather conditions by using the retry button. You can click and drag your mouse anywhere on the map to get a measurement in distance and angle. Going to the next level will give you more complex weather conditions.

Each row, column and region must contain only one instance of each symbol or numeral (Source <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudoku>).

Click on the items until you find what you think is the correct answer. Then, click on the OK button in the control bar.
