The Turing Walkthrough - Beginning to End

[Nick Zettel]

I had never writen a single line of code in my life untill i took a computers class this year (grade 10). My class was a little slow, and I enjoyed writing code so much, I looked for faster instructions online. I was very pleased when I found this sticky, it is a great beginers guide!

Make your own thread. Show us what you have, where you're at, what you know.

I never knew Turing could use classes and pointers. thus it is a object oriented compiler?

Yes, it is called Object Oriented Turing (the latest version anyways).

Thanks for the guide! My teacher doesn't teach us anything... He tells us to make a program but doesnt tell us how to do it, it's rather confusing but thanks to your guide it really helps

Yeah most high school courses aren't very well written.

Just out of curiousity, would all of these guides be creative commons licensed? IE can these directly be printed out and distributed as course material?

Hi, i am making a game for my class project using turing. Basically its going to be a fighter, not to complex since i am short on time. But what i was thinking is like having this guy run through places and enemies randomly appearing in front of him and attacking him. Now the problems i have is that, well first i should tell you that i have gotten him to run back and forth and jump and thats all i have, but what i really need to know is how can i make enemies randomly appear and have him attack them by pressing a key and have them attack back. Any help appreciated. thank you
