I have added a reset button so that you can reset embarrassing scores :D
Furthermore the speed of the game was strongly dependent on processor-speed.
Therefore I made the loopspeed fixed to 50 cycles per second which might be too high for older devices :(
Also some functions have been changed and some options have been added at the beginning of the program.

Pong has now sound :D
The website https://www.freesound.org has a wealth of sound samples. It is free, you only need to make a login-account.
There I found the 'Atari-pong', a decaying square-wave signal. :lol:

The skill of the computer-player is now randomized, so that play is less annoying. Set 'Random=1' for that.
If 'Random=0' then the skill of the computer-player is reduced wit the variable 'Handicap'
With 'Handicap=1' you will loose. ;) With 'Handicap=2' you have a chance to win.
The paddles are larger now, so that winning becomes easier.
