[QUOTE=T3hGamerDK;35887709]I'm sorry, but how does this display function hooks? I'm not sure what to look for.[/QUOTE]

I hooked print() to a C# function.

        static Value risk_print(Value[] args)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Script: " + args[0].ToString());
            return new Bool(true);
        }

[QUOTE=i300;35888107]Why?[/QUOTE]Because some random guy told him to do it

[QUOTE=i300;35888107]Why?[/QUOTE]

1. MCUs use C and as I have a MCU I need some knowlage of C to use it.

2. I have more experience in C-oriented languages than I do in Java so I know my way around in those languages.

3. I don't support Oracle, at all because of their shitty tactics e.g sueing other companies. Just look at how they tried to sue Google for using Java.

You are using MCUs? Go for assembly then, it's so much faster

His 3rd reason is dumb though, you don't choose your language based on the corporation ethics of the company that created it, unless they limit the usability of the language itself.

What the hell is a C-oriented language?
If you mean C-style than Java is one.

And your third points... oh man.

[QUOTE=Eudoxia;35888614]Oh, let him be. I jumped like crazy from one language to the other and I'm not that bad off now.[/QUOTE]

I agree with this. And the only place I've found to settle, is by using the Parrot VM. Mostly because it allows for creation of dynamic languages relatively simple. At least, more simple than doing everything from scratch. And it has basic IO library bindings, namespace, classes and polymorphic container support built right in to the virtual machine. Additionally it has bindings to things like OpenGL and GLUT and other window creation stuff.
It's pretty fast too!
But the ability to create your own language, and quickly download new ones and start writing right ahead using the Parrot "package manager" (plumage) is simply bliss.

tl;dr: Go crazy, try languages and be a man!

[QUOTE=Mr.T;35888963]Well that is what they are doing, they sued Google for using Java without buying a license or some shit.[/QUOTE]

That's not even close.

[Kamshak]

it is a perfectly valid point, if the company that manages the language does some fucked up shit with the licensing then it is perfectly reasonable to stay away from that language(especially if it sucks anyway)

Oh dear, every time I see Mr. T post..

I've started with HTML and since I've done JS, CSS, PHP, AS2, AS3, ASP, Lua, C#, C++, Batch, Python, Java and I really feel good about that, even though I know just a bit from most.

I really like Lua, tho. It just doesn't have that much power without custom libraries.

So yes, I'd say it's better to learn multiple languages than staying focussed on just one.

I've been considering the same exact thing. That's exactly the kind of reason that you should be dropping a language. In a perfect world, programmer's use of a language regardless of the ethics of a company would be a great way to show that languages really are free form entities with no rightful "owner" but unfortunately that's not the world that we live in. Assholes think they can control something as basic and inherent as a language and they need to understand that it's asinine. Boycotting it by jumping to any one of the other great languages out there is the best choice we've got.

No language has much, if any, power without "additional libraries". With that, I'm just saying that the only reason OpenGL is available in ANYTHING else than C, is because it's been ported, or the language understands C headers (such as C++).
The good thing about Lua is that you can add more stuff into it with simple lua-powered libraries that it can use, whereas other languages might require more than just a simple language-powered library.
Take NodeJS libraries for instance, they require more than just "#include nodejs.h" to add functionality to it, and advanced functionality cannot be added simply using Javascript code.

I also have the feeling that Java really wants you to use Eclipse as building without it is a pain.

cd /D %0\..

        if exist Crawler.jar (

It took me about 10 hours to figure out how to do this.

Well I mean to be fair a lot of what you have there is just housekeeping. Building java programs without Eclipse isn't really a big deal at all. Plus you can always use stuff like Maven if your project is getting really big without needing eclipse either.

Just be glad you don't have to work with IBM's commercialized version of Eclipse, Rational Application Developer. What a fuckin' nightmare.

Still working on EvilGeniusCode, almost done with it though. Only remains to get the arrays properly typed and finishing up my class system.

Program parses as:

plan NoteEverything(array Inp)
  every Item in Inp?
    print("Note: ", Item, "\n").
    result.
  repeatedly.
finished.
plan A(integer M, integer N)
  is (M == 0)? result: (N + 1). end.
  is (M == 1)? result: (N + 2). end.
  is (M == 2)? result: ((2 * N) + 3). end.
  is (M == 3)? result: ((2 ^ (N + 3)) - 3). end.
  is ((M > 0) and (N == 0))? result: A((M - 1), 1). end.
  is ((M > 0) and (N > 0))? result: A((M - 1), A(M, (N - 1))). end.
finished.
Arr is of type array.
Arr=[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ["Hello", "World"]].
NoteEverything(Arr).
Fib is of type integer.
Fib=A(4, 2).
puts(Fib).
