Just so we're clear, I have absolutely no problems with your original post. ^_^ I totally appreciate that your views are entirely subjective. Like I said, it's fine to avoid breaks and continues and other control flow tools if you don't want to use them; that's totally, totally fine. Everybody...

First off, I want to say that if you prefer not to use break and continue statements, there's nothing wrong with that, but for any new programmers coming on the scene, I want to make sure that it's understood that the use of the break and continue statements are idiomatic in the majority of...

Just to expand on my previous post: I totally agree with Twiggy's post above, I moved into C++ programming soon after getting started with Python, and I really feel like I learned the fundamentals of OOP from C++. Making the transition to C# was really easy from C++ (.NET even supports native...

I am a massive fan of C#, but sometimes starting off with something as massive as the .NET framework can be intimidating. There are a lot of things that look like boilerplate in the language at first as well (which is why I don't like Java as a starting language either, because when you start...

I had my first entry into development with HTML, and then quickly CSS, but found it really difficult to make the transition into an actual programming language (that is to say, not a markup language, but something which contains logic, nothing against markup languages). If you have used...

Personally, I'm not a fan of Chromebooks. I ended up being gifted one a few months ago (I ended up re-gifting it to my brother who happened to want one at the time), and honestly it was definitely not for me. As far as I'm concerned, it wasn't terribly useful, as I wasn't able to easily do many...

I certainly appreciate your perspective on this. :) For me, it's still C++ all the way, for the reasons I described in my earlier post, but I'm a huge fan of C# and C as well. :P I totally get what you're saying about languages like C# and Java being a little easier to write in in some...

I'm pretty new to the forums, so I don't really know the members. Maybe my most prudent option would be to guess the previous poster, as he still seems pretty active at the moment. :) I'll guess ThePainedPikachu.

Maybe with this banning, I can put you out of your misery. Banned for being pained. :( ^_^

January: 1 February: 12 March: 0 April: 2 May: 5 June: 37 July: 6 August: 0 September: 24 October: 1 November: 0 December: 6 My birthday is actually tomorrow. :) I'll be nineteen. ^_^

Banned for hurting my feelings. :'( Boo-hoo, as it were. :( Just kidding of course. :) ^_^

Banned because I ended up writing an IM system in PHP and JavaScript yesterday for fun, and your banning is somehow unfortunate and unexpected collateral damage. I'm truly sorry for my recklessness. :P

By far, I'd say my all around favorite development language has to be C++. Features like operator overloading, in my opinion, give a fairly decent level of control. One particular area where it has been useful for me, was when I had to develop a portability library which reimplemented a few of...

Personally, I've always liked having the option of having multiple save files, as it gives me the freedom to use them if necessary. You can always manually overwrite your old saves if you need to, so having the ability to save the game at multiple places to replay your favorite parts on demand...

Thank you for the very warm welcome! :D I have been known to do some writing in my spare time. I used to maintain a blog in my spare time, however it's been almost a year since I've actually made a blog post on there. I've got a few of my silly JavaScript projects hosted there, but beyond that...
