Yeah teejay looks like they havent taught you about arrays yet. You can learn about them here if you're curious: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array Arrays are pretty simple to conceptualize: They're a type of object that contains a series of variables, which are assigned position 0,…
A person who makes the code on the fly should be the very last person to umm..Give him (the OP,) any sort of advice. You've dodged a bullet and the wall text there sir Zeus Konrad. My coding is just fine. Its the after math (if any) takes me like 5-6 hours and I really hate it if that. (and sorry I asked your help this one…
Arrays are awesome. Searching through them is even more fun. foreach(Item thing in ShoppingList) ( console.log(thing); } //Will come out the same like above.
I think I'm stuck already. CodeAcademy seems to miss something, or I'm missing something; In the 'Functions' section talking about the Return function, it has a section saying 'Let's focus on two things we've learned, Arrays and Loops'... except I haven't covered Arrays?!! Not sure if this link will work if you're not…
I don't particularly like what i'm seeing on that site but whatever. Let me give it a shot: An array is essentially a variable that can hold more than one value. It does this by storing each value in sequence. Maybe you could equate it to a shopping list, you write down what you need: -milk -eggs -bread -carrots -sugar So,…
I don't know about for Unity, but arrays are used all the time and are super useful for tons of stuff (they're sort of a core concept and very powerful/(I'd say essential) so I wouldn't skip over them. If you want to store more than one related value of something, iterate through data, organize a basic data structure, get…
I think I see where you're coming from. Back in high school we were doing ode programs for math equations which totally threw off programming for me. Just remember that again its baby steps. Maybe once you're down with the basics like arrays, variables, functions etc dive into a tutorial (digital tutors has some stuff on…
Ok thanks guys, I figured out that exercise I was stuck on. Turns out arrays are covered later anyway, I get the concept though. This one's got me baffled though, I got the program running (calculates the power, returns true/false), but I can't get my head around part of it (bold part), it makes no sense. var…
I just wanted to emphasize this post. When starting out, the language is fairly unimportant. What you're really trying to learn are the methodologies of programming across all languages; things like Looping, Arrays, Classes and Objects. I've bounced between a few languages myself when starting out and the only hurdle is…
It's been a long term intention of mine to have a go at making a little game or two using one of the 'indie friendly' engines, most probably Unity. I'm not intending to sell it, make an MMO or any other overly ambitious project, this is just for my own fun and learning. This week I finally got around to getting started and…
