Can a µC act as a Darts Computer?

[David Ledgard - BAEC]

When playing darts you have to go down from 501 to 0. With two players competing against each other. Sometimes you have to score trebles, doubles, and specific numbers to reach 0. The first one who does wins. The three darts thrown by erach palyer each turn are added up, then subtracted.

This could be done using a 0-9 keyboard + two control buttons, and two 3-digit 7-segment displays.

How much RAM and ROM would this require? No more than a dozen RAM bytes I imagine to store the numbers????

What is the most amount of RAM a modern µC has?

What is the more amount of ROM a modern µC has?

What is the maximum clock speed?

To the hocky!!!!

Yes, it's easily possible, a PIC would do it no problem, and I seem to recall that EPE did just such a project a while ago?.
