Why so? Don''t you have a multi-tasking OS? If so just run a command line window alongside your editor and run the code in that! > Say you have a line AB with co-ords (x1,y1) and (x2,y2).

Use it to determine the y coordinate for x3 If y3 is greater than the calculated y then your point is above the line.
