Abstract: A method for prompting by suggesting the stroke order of a Chinese character, an electronic device, and a computer program product are provided. The electronic device includes a database for storing codes of Chinese characters, and at least one stroke order of at least one handwriting of each of the Chinese characters. In the present method, when a character input through a phonetic transcription input method installed in the electronic device is identified, at least one Chinese character code corresponding to the input character is obtained from the database, and a stroke order of a handwriting of the input character from the database is shown according to the Chinese character code. Accordingly, a user is assisted to memorize the stroke orders of Chinese characters when the user inputs Chinese characters.

Abstract: A method for transforming a data stream and a communication system thereof are provided. In a second communication terminal, a padding data of the data stream of a first communication terminal is checked whether it corresponds to a default value so as to determine whether a first bit order used for the data stream of the first communication terminal is consistent with a second bit order used for a data stream of the second communication terminal. When the padding data does not correspond to the default value, the data stream transmitted from the first communication terminal is transformed from the first bit order to the second bit order by the second communication terminal.

Abstract: A phrase input system and a method thereof that is applicable for a handwriting input apparatus is disclosed. The phrase input system comprises a database, an input unit, an output unit, an identification unit, and a comparison unit. The database stores a collection of phrases. The input unit is used for inputting a handwriting phrase that includes at least one handwriting character. The identification unit identifies the handwriting phrase to produce an effective phrase. The comparison unit compares the effective phrase and the collection of phrases in the database in order to find an optimum phrase. The optimum phrase is displayed through the output unit. When the phrase input system is applied to the handwriting input apparatus, the recognition rate of the handwriting is improved.

Abstract: The present invention is to provide a method of enabling a plurality of electronic devices to play an online game at the same time, which is implemented in a server and a plurality of electronic devices at a remote end of a network. Each of the electronic devices comprises a network card so that the electronic devices are able to connect to the server. In response to receiving game instructions sent from the electronic devices by the server, the server processes game data for obtaining updated data based on the game instructions, and then sends the updated data to each of the electronic devices. As such, a CPU of each of the electronic devices can receive the updated data, show a game screen on a display thereof and interactively play an online game.

Abstract: A method and a system for implementing a multi-way game are disclosed, wherein a combination of a learning software and a game software is used, and the user can still perform the game playing procedure. The present invention first divides the game software into a number of game stages, according to the difficulty level or the procedure property of the game software. Then, a source weight for each of a number of game sources needed by each of the game stages is determined, so that a game evaluating module is set up. According to the difficulty level and content of the learning software, a learning weight is respectively determined, so that a learning evaluating module is set up. Next, a related database is set up according to the source weight, the learning evaluating weight, and a transformation function, so that the source weight and the learning evaluating weight can be exchanged to each other.
