That's brilliant !

I corrected the 'S' in '5' at line 10, and now Breakout Game runs :-)

So, in 1982 I bought a magazine "L'Ordinateur Individuel" and a ZX81 ...

I typed the Breakout Game with a friend (he had a TV set) and it worked.

This Breakout program learned me a lot, because the ZX81 manual is
telling a very few about "machine language" ... I learned the Z80
assembly language, and had a lot of fun with my Sinclair computer.

Many thanks for your kind helping.

Best regards,
