MY FIRST PROGRAM

[ZeroPaladn]

this is my first ever program that I made, by myself. I know its just compared to everything else on this site but i hope you guys can give me kudos just for doing htis.

That's pretty good, especially for a first program. But, you don't need an Input.hasch (btw, you can just call hasch instead of Input.hasch), Input.KeyDown works by itself (it probably uses hasch itself). And you can change

code:

y := y + 10

to

code:

y += 10

or even better,

code:

y += 1

which is smoother

+= is incremental

-= is decremental

And, if you make each separate key press check a different if statment, you can get diagonal movement Here's the code I changed around a bit. Pretty sweet, though. My first program was a simple art picture. And then a "Hi, my name is"

code:

setscreen ("graphics:640,480,offscreenonly") var x : int := 300 var y : int := 200 var chars : array char of boolean loop     cls     drawfilloval (x, y, 20, 20, 43)     Input.KeyDown (chars)     if chars (KEY_UP_ARROW) then         y += 1     end if     if chars (KEY_DOWN_ARROW) then         y -= 1     end if     if chars (KEY_LEFT_ARROW) then         x -= 1     end if     if chars (KEY_RIGHT_ARROW) then         x += 1     end if     View.Update end loop
