Good programming language to learn?

[Bell]

Yea gotta watch out for those huge nerds.

[Menial]

Those small nerds always trying to keep a brother down.

[Speakman]

where an inbuilt switch for case insensitive comparison doesn't exist I'd use a regex, but that's because I'm a huge nerd apparently.

needs more beard tbh

[Kayne]

any reason Why I can't do multiple else if statements?

i.e  if so and so == 1
        mode = 1
    else if so and so == 2
        mode = 2
    else if so and so == 3
        mode = 3
    else Console.WriteLine ("")

(That's not my actual code, but it is very similar)

Anything specific I need to do?

Atm, all i did was work around it by going

    if so and so == 1
        mode = 1
    else if so and so == 2
        mode = 2
    if so and so == 3
        mode = 3
    if so and so == 0
        Console.WriteLine ("")

[Bell]

should be able to do as many else ifs as you want.
What error are you getting?

[Kayne]

wtf it suddenly works... Confused...

lol... was probably a tiny syntax error :d

[Kayne]

I feel like such a nerd >.< Programming is too fun

Umm, Is there any way that I can group a list of functions into one word?

i.e

When I want to do these...

Console.WriteLine();
Console.ReadLine();
if (Console.ReadLine() == "Hey")
   Greeting = "Hey";

Am I able to write...

Greetings test = {
Console.WriteLine();
Console.ReadLine();
if (Console.ReadLine() == "Hey")
   Greeting = "Hey";}

Perform Greetings test
(which would do all those commands)

BTW the reason im' asking instead of googling is because you guys are a lot more clear than msdn is at times :x

[Apostrophe Spacemonkey]

you can simply make a method

Code: [Select]

public void Greetings()
{
Console.WriteLine();
Console.ReadLine();
if (Console.ReadLine() == "Hey")
   Greeting = "Hey";
}
Then call Greetings(); elsewhere in code to run it.


Also, above where you had all your if, else if statements, and switch/case might be more useful.

Code: [Select]

int so = 2;

switch (so)
{
case 1 :
mode = 1;
break;
case 2 :
mode = 2;
break;
default :
Console.WriteLine ("");
break;
}

[Pyromanik]

l2 code tag guys, that's nasty trying to read that, haha

[Kayne]

just to update everyone.

My game is almost finished, all I have to add is the code for the bot to not be an idiot, and allow people to easily line up 3 squares.

(I'll be working on it now, will post when I'm finally finished )

[Pyromanik]

Alright, good to hear.

I think I have the next challenge lined up.
It'll be ready when you are :>

[Kayne]

I might take a break for the next challange lol

Theres a few bugs, like your required to type in a square twice (don't just press enter - enter, retype the number.)

But i'm so tired, and i just made garlic bread.

== no effort to fix.

Still open for comments + feedback

I'm sorry I let you guys down.

[Pyromanik]

Not at all. You actually made a finish.

***
Urgh I hate you .NET
*You need version 4 of the .NET Framework to run this*

[toofast]

The front of the game looks quite nice. Its good to see you took the time to make an attractive interface.

You should include your code like before. The fact you have to enter in numbers twice is a very weird bug.

Also, pyro, you have failed windows update. It constantly keeps updating my .net framework.

[Pyromanik]

Doesn't update if you don't got it installed.
Marked as optional rather than critical, if it's even there at all.

You must also remember that versions 1,2,3 and 4 are all seperate Frameworks.





And after that cryfest:
I've made my challenge in Python.
You will need to install Version 3 of Python to run it (3.1 to be exact).

...Just as soon as I figure out why the fucking board won't reset ><
goddamnit I so just wanna make this in C.
**literally TWO seconds later:
derp derp derp, derpity derp derp: = not == you moran.

[Pyromanik]

Python 3.1, dl, clickclick, profit.
Not the tidiest, but that can come later.






Let me know when you're ready for challenge 2 Kayne, we'll do it together again.
(Me taking Virus' place, since he's a short lived fanatic, and I am also just learning Python, since he 'started' it, I thought I should learn it too...)

[Apostrophe Spacemonkey]

I'm keen for this next challenge, depending on what it is.

[Tiwaking!]

I'm keen for this next challenge, depending on what it is.

The next challenge is:

GetSomeChess


Pieces have must have customisable icons. This way you can make the different pieces to be the avatars of people from the forums.

Movement rules are not too important at the moment.

[Apostrophe Spacemonkey]

Challenge accepted.


It will download your avatar from GetSomeforums, based on your profile ID. Now I have to get that chess part working.

[Menial]

Yay Kayne, it's good to see the youth of today actually trying do something with themselves.

[Apostrophe Spacemonkey]

This is the result of too many coffee's in the morning.

Good programming language to learn?

Coming later, actual game play.

[Speakman]

i can has castle

[Apostrophe Spacemonkey]

Here is teh first version.

Unzip to somewhere and run the exe file.

It needs .NET 4, if you played Kayne's game, you should have it.


There are no gameplay rules yet, you can stick a piece anywhere, even on your own ones, and it will kill them.

The instructions at the start tell you how to add people's avatars. Not following the instructions will probably cause it to crash.

[Kayne]

Yay Kayne, it's good to see the youth of today actually trying do something with themselves.

I love programming lol, It might not show it from my laziness, but yeah. I actually think its fun *nerd*

anyways, chess? Not sure If I can? May have a jab at it tonight

btw fuck yeah , pawns are the REAL men in chess.

btw again, Spacemonkey, it seems that if a chess piece kills more than 3 people, then it will blood3 will be dropped when it kills more?

[Pyromanik]

My challenge #2 will have to wait for later I guess :<
