Yeah, I'd say Python is good for a complete beginner.

However, that does not mean it's a language only for beginners. I don't see a reason why you'd "need" to transition to another language.

Though, maybe you'd want to learn C, because you'd learn more about programming (it's at a lower level).

Unless you actually needed to know another language for a specific reason (i.e. you're trying to program on a platform only supporting one language, or you're trying to modify something written using another language), you really don't "need" to move to Java or C++.

But that's just the opinion of someone who dislikes Java and C++ and does most of his programming in Python, C, and VB .NET. :P

I would say that starting with Python is great, but movind to another language is very important. C and Java are the most popular.
Then there's .NET (C# and VB) you should also try.

The first non-Python language I learnt was Java, I hated it. I thought it was too hard. So, go from Python to C (something easier) and only then to .NET and/or Java :D

DJ: yeah it still has the same goals as before.

About the pic: I DO NOT have any commands implemented as of now. I am working on the internal stuff and the picture demonstrates what it is currently doing to make it easier to interpret the source code of the programs we will soon be able to write.

about updates: I will continue to work on this and YES you will be able to do FANCY GRAPHICS but not for a while yet because graphic commands will not be added until math stuff is done. HOWEVER there will be a small break in updates because I am going to be switching from Ubuntu linux to Arch linux and also christmas stuff will take up some of my time.

I will post another screenie when the interpreter is able to handle the command Disp ".

Nice, Disp " is a start ;)

Computer Projects and Ideas / Re: Juggernaut Map Editor
« on: December 24, 2010, 03:18:40 pm »
hello omnimaga, as some of you know i'm making a game in java called Juggernaut which will require many maps. within the next week, my map editor will be functional enough for you, the user, to create maps and receive a string of numbers which i can use. if you're interested in making maps for Juggernaut, PM me. you'll be mentioned in the readme if i use your levels.

Woah great, I could try to make some maps, I never made many, so they won't be very tricky, but would still like to give it a try :)

Python is good for a complete beginner.

The best I must say, it's what I started with:

Code: [Select]
a = "Hello"
print a
b = raw_input()
if b = "World":
    print "Correct Answer"
else:
    print "Wrong Answer"
raw_input()

Really simple code, perfect for scripts :)

The first one is better. However, the very very very first one (made on-calc) was the best of all (so far). However, I am aware that these are painted :)

http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/api/javax/swing/undo/package-summary.html

This looks as easy as in .NET:

Code: [Select]
textBox1.Undo();
textBox3.Redo();

While trying to implement a Font Dialog, I came across an automatic Font Dialog, but it needs to import stuff like:

Code: [Select]
import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
import org.eclipse.swt.events.SelectionAdapter;
import org.eclipse.swt.events.SelectionEvent;
import org.eclipse.swt.graphics.Color;
import org.eclipse.swt.graphics.Font;
import org.eclipse.swt.graphics.FontData;
import org.eclipse.swt.graphics.Image;
import org.eclipse.swt.graphics.RGB;
import org.eclipse.swt.layout.FillLayout;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Button;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.FontDialog;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Shell;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Text;

Both NetBeans and Eclipse say that those imports are invalid. Is it a special download?

screenshots?

If Binder can't make them, I could make them for him :)

I did find a sweet deal for a graphlink cable on amazon, just have to convince my dad to order it :P

and, since it's been so long since I looked at pyyrix, I'm optimizing it for space/speed, and then I can add in a level editor :D

Wow, necropost on my own game's topic :P what's it been, like a month or so now?

I can't wait for you to get it: You'll upload two or three games in a row! :D

yeah, they don't have it anymore, but at least amazon does, and my dad has express shipping so WHEN HE FINALLY FEELS LIKE ORDERING IT it'll be a two day wait :(

Giv'him lots of hugs and kisses, say good stuff about him, make a game where he's the main character :P That could work ;)

UPDATES: check my first post and re-download the JAR. It should also work with java 5

It's the only update? (working both in Java5 and Java 6?)

Binder News: It looks like a really good engine, I tried it a bit and looks like an 'ohh shiny!' game :) The main character sprite is great! I love the style of it! That hat looks great, congrats your friend!

I was thinking about using the StreamTokenizer class. java.io package. http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/api/java/io/StreamTokenizer.html
Documentation link.

Yes, there are a few online, easy to copy and paste code, but if you wanna make, for example, a TI-Basic one it gets harder :S

I need someone to make an actual tokenizer. I need it to find strings, so it doesn't split stuff at spaces if they are inside quotes. It needs to return a string array.

EDIT: How do you like using Python? Do you think Python or Java would be easier to learn as a first language?

Tokenizers are hard job, I tried making one in both Python and C# with no luck.

Python would be easier as a first language, it's the easiest one and very useful for scripting, believe me!
