Other Programming Languages

[Shotgun Ninja]

Okay, I know this site has HTML/XHTML, CSS, JScript, VBScript, PHP, ASP, Java, ActionScript, MySQL, and that "Other" forum (Which is, to the extent of my knowledge, only used for .htaccess so far), but what about the other high-level programming languages out there? What about QBASIC, C++, Python, C#, and those others? So if you are into other programming languages, please post here, and alk about what you can do with them.

Here's an example code in QBasic (a nice simple programming language that can be edited by NotePad and is not case-sensitive) :

I guess you didn't realize that these forums are for discussing languages for the Web.

[Shotgun Ninja]

So? Look at what I have ignited. There are currently about 4 other threads with related subject matter pertaining to this. And besides, QBasic can be used for automating web interactions. MySQL was based off of QBasic and related scripting languages. Heck, you could probably use QBasic or C# to make your own web code language.

[Shotgun Ninja]

Hey, cool, I'm now up to 'Regular Coder'.

EDIT:

By the way, I'm pretty sure you could use this QBasic command, for example:

'Example

CLS
CHDIR http://whateverwebsite.com/  (Website folder)
OPEN file.dat AS 1   (File FOR mode AS filenumber)
GET 1, 1, variable#    (Filenumber, RemoteVariableNumber, LocalVariable)
LET variable# = variable# + 1    (Adds 1 to variable#)
PUT 1, 1, variable#    (Writes variable to remote variable)
CLOSE 1   (Closes file with filenumber 1)
CLEAR    (Clears all variables, closes folders and files)
END

Well, C# can be used with ASP.NET. Python is used so frequently for web development that it's joined the P of LAMP. C++ is very rarely used for the Web, and QBasic... hah. The thought of writing a website in QBasic is... well, enough to make my blood run cold.

Shoot, I program like this on my Ti-83 Special edition. I didn't know I was that smart. Lol

[Shotgun Ninja]

Actually, I first wrote that on a TI-83.

EDIT:

I'm also trying to transfer over a version of Asteroids I wrote on it to QBasic.

And by the way, I wasn't suggesting using QBasic for web programming. I just want my favorite non-web languages to have a discussion forum on here.

[djr33]

I love TI83 programming.

I've long wanted to write an entire interactive website in NASM using CGI, just so I could say I'd done it.
