Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions on old programming languages
Python is great for web applications as well when you pair it with PyPy and Falcon framework.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions on old programming languages
FreeBASIC is awesome. Bringing back the feelingnof Visual Basic. Any other old languages?
Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions on old programming languages
COBOL is a old one: http://www.mainframegurukul.com/tutorials/programming/cobol/cobol-tutorial.html also this one was ment to be the first high level language: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plankalk%C3%BCl
Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions on old programming languages
I must say something about Lisp. The idea of operators being functions is truly awesome.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions on old programming languages
Will check it out. :D thanks.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions on old programming languages
Oh yes. Nimrod or Nim is an awesome language.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions on old programming languages
I have been looking at FORTRAN and I am starting to like it a lot. I might in the future also learn BASIC as it is just simply awesome.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions on old programming languages
If I may ask what programming languages (if any of you guys are programmers) do you guys like and ones that young know. Also reasons of why and what your preferences on a language are, if I may so humbly ask :D.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions on old programming languages
if you want to program for the gameboy see these resources: http://gbdev.gg8.se/ http://www.devrs.com/gb/links.php http://gameboy.mongenel.com/asmschool.html a gameboy assembler: https://github.com/bentley/rgbds a post explaining how to compile c code using sdcc for the gameboy: http://sourceforge.net/p/sdcc/discussion/1864/thread/e04ebcc5/ please note that you will need to write a standern libary as the only one i found dosent look like it has a license (correct me if i am wrong) and so is non-free i email the creator about the licenses and they haven’t got back to me just be sure to avoid the non-free stuff also heres a libre gameboy program in asm you can learn from: https://github.com/AntonioND/back-to-color

RMS was the reason why Lisp was onnky list.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions on old programming languages
Sorry about that. Never mind it.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions on old programming languages
I do do Python. I love it. Beautiful language allows you to code really quickly.

Woah awesome bro. gameboy for the win. But bigger. Kudos too youbfor being able to code in Assembly.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions on old programming languages
I use mor from 20 languages hahaha but c its First language in my heart Because it gives me the freedom to control everything Then come python It is a magical language

Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions on old programming languages
out of interest why do you make all your posts 2 times?
Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions on old programming languages
i use c for most things as because it lets you do just about everything and theres loads of documentation and libs for it sometimes i mix FORTRAN with c if i think there’s something that could be done easier in FORTRAN i know a bit of assembler enough to make a x86 bootloader and i am currently learning gbz80 asm so i can make gameboy applications using assembler
Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions on old programming languages
What computer do you use (out of interest of your profile picture). Is that a ThinkPad?

Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions on old programming languages
Python is easily my favorite language. I do just about everything in Python. I've even done things I could do in bash in Python (like iterating over dozens of files and renaming them a certain way), though that's largely because I haven't bothered to learn much of bash. Out of C and C++, I'm personally more fond of C, though I understand I'm in a minority. I think there are too many ways to do a lot of things in C++, mostly as a result of inheriting stuff from C while also inventing totally new methods to do stuff (e.g. malloc/free vs new/delete).

Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions on old programming languages
I just thought it would be fun. And many ifbthem looked easy to learn. I mean BASIC is still very cool.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions on old programming languages
RMS's preferred language, lisp. The most powerful programming language is Lisp. If you don't know Lisp (or its variant, Scheme), you don't know what it means for a programming language to be powerful and elegant. Once you learn Lisp, you will understand what is lacking in most other languages. https://stallman.org/stallman-computing.html
Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions on old programming languages
if you like old languages FORTRAN is a good one its from the 1950's and the code is fairly easy to read and its similar to BASIC heres some resources: to install a fortran compiler use sudo apt-get install gfortran and to use the compiler gfortran program.f08 also some tutoirals general fortran: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMYDnuotCSMXV0Yk6nJBQF4sqzI8GjfBj how to mix fortran with c: calling c from fortran: http://92.19.232.58:82/videos/fortran_tutorials/html/ftrn_tut_11.html calling fortran from c: http://92.19.232.58:82/videos/fortran_tutorials/html/ftrn_tut_12.html
Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions on old programming languages
Any particular reason you want the language to be old? There's nothing wrong with using an old language (as long as there's a libre compiler or interpreter available for you to use), but I'm curious as to why.
