Php or Perl, it will be dramatically different from what you're used to with VB. But it will help prepare you to learn other languages. I posted a few tutorials in the programming section. I'll be sure to post more soon if I know people are using them.

Hi. Go with Python, you won't regret it.

**Chad** · 10 Jun. 2011 01:13am

I mainly use C#, PHP, and Java.

**323** · 10 Jun. 2011 01:14am

HTML, Python, PHP, Perl, VB, and C#

Don't learn C++ Yet, you'll want to learn C-- or C# First, their much simpler

Well, maybe not C--

Just saying.

What the heck is C--?

Thank you guys for your input in my new spark into the programming. I wanted to widen my Skill in this. In all reality Chad sparked my Interest in programming. So Thank you chad.

EDIT: I am going to start out with C#, php , and some perl.

I don't advise you to go into Perl so early, I suggest you learn Python as an alternative.

Python. You can contribute to the development of the official LG programs with all the cool kids. And, by cool kids I mean just me. As it currently stands, I'm stuck with a bunch of .NET fangirls who refuse to code in anything else.

I think you're forgetting about Riddle ma'am. You should take a look into Mono.

**Smithno13** · 10 Jun. 2011 01:22am

Hey, I'm starting in python, i'd like some recognition :p

Lol i will give python a try tonight.

**Artificial** · 10 Jun. 2011 01:27am

I've done quite a bit of work with Mono, but the annoying aspect of it is that it isn't native to most systems. I wasn't really having a go at .NET, but more your refusal to code in anything else :p Either way, use what you're familiar with. I have no real issues with you guys using .NET.

Python is a great language, but the language you should use depends on circumstance. If you're only out to make simple programs for Gaiaonline, you'll probably find .NET the easiest solution.

I am going to make a couple nice bots am i able to make a dumpster dive bot and a account creator in python? those are going to be my first goals. ANd yes just simple programs like a refresher you would find VERY easy in .net

We'll be using 2.7 for our official development, so you'll probably want to download that version.

ya i got IRONpython 2.7 installer downloading and installing right now. What could i do to helps? :x

**Smithno13** · 10 Jun. 2011 01:37am

Why not upgrade to 3.1?

Riddle uses 3.2 I believe.

**Artificial** · 10 Jun. 2011 01:39am

A lot of the existing Python libraries aren't forward compatible. If you upgrade to 3 you'll find yourself in a situation where, a lot of the resources you would have had at your disposal in 2.7 aren't available.

i.e. a lot of the GUI libraries aren't properly available for Python 3.

Building using Visual Studio 2010

Open IronPython.sln in Visual Studio 2010 and build (from menu: Build->Build Solution). Set IronPythonConsole as your startup project in the Solution Explorer.

LOST X_X

**Artificial** · 10 Jun. 2011 01:44am

Why are you doing all of that? Python 2.7.1 Release Download the Windows installer if you're on Windows.

**Kain** · 10 Jun. 2011 01:45am

I'm gonna learn python, and use it to make completely unnecessary things.

**Taz** · 10 Jun. 2011 01:46am

Finally they used my idea of posting to view links

Well my idea that i stole from a forum.

thats what i have D:

**Smithno13** · 10 Jun. 2011 02:20am

Monster, you just said you are using ironpython. Don't.

**IABB** · 10 Jun. 2011 02:35am

do python, its a good but easy language. also most school use it now so if you decide to take a programming course later it would really help.

then what do i needs?

Google Python 2.7, Download.

**MattSmith** · 10 Jun. 2011 04:33am

Python is great for a lot of things but i just dont like the syntax. At all.
I do C# and java mainly.

**Artificial** · 10 Jun. 2011 04:49am

Well that's a perfectly valid reason to shun a language, a slightly different syntax style. /sarcasm

10 Jun. 2011 05:49pm

Python's syntax is pretty typical. But let's put it this way, if Python has a 'slightly different syntax', what does that make Perl's syntax?
