Mono is easy to use? And I'll be able to use it to make mine fish correct? Cuz im tried of downloading shit I just end up never using.

Basically it's easy to use, the hardest part was to modify the computers environment variables so I could compile from the command prompt.

Still, I'm not sure if C# is the best choice. I still have no idea how to make a game where you shoot fishes.

Just for fun, I tried to make the game where you shoot fishes with your mouse in Python, and I did it in under 20 minutes (the source code was under 60 lines of code).

someone said Python sucked because it was slow and not really a programming language, but more of a scripting language.

Python is a scripting language, but it can still be compiled into exe, and it is slow, but it doesn't have to be, it can be speeded up with external C modules like Psyco very easily.

And people often say slower languages, like Python, C# and Java, are bad, but I doubt not many of them can write a program that really requires the power that C and C++ can give.

java has not been a slow language for a long time. Right now its around 2 to 5 times slower than c++ with the right compiler and runtime and c# is about 2 times slower than java. Most scripting languages on the other hand are dozens or hundreds of times slower than c++.

That's why I write my programs core with C++ and extend it with Python.

c# is not vc++

You don't need external libraries in c# to do what you asked.

Instructions for installing external libraries are on the net, just google for it if you need to (but you don't).


So you're saying, I could Make Mine Fish in C#?
I  must. And I must now. Where do I start? should I use Codeblocks?

If you don't want to mess with IDEs, you should check Mono if you use C#.

Python is fun.

Code: [Select]
print ', '.join(map(str, sorted([int(raw_input('Number '+str(n+1)+'? ')) for n in range(int(raw_input('How many numbers? ')))])))(Everything is in one line)

First it asks how many numbers to take, and then it asks the numbers and finally prints them in sorted order.

  • Explore a few other (very minor) compat issues

I'm not very good at english, so does "compat" mean something, or is this just a typo?
