a classic c:\ program of the book of changes as translated by aleister crowley
 
This I Ching program was developed in 1991 by Robert Jene Amick and was first written in BASIC then later translated and compiled in C++. The text is transcribed from Aleister Crowley's translation published by Level Press, San Francisco, California. In his book Magick in Theory and Practice, Crowley professes a certain affection for the I Ching which shows in his translations into English. An affable I Ching, all in all.
