Hi, fellow ECCers. Im starting out programming, and cant seem to get JavaScript, which is the language i decided to start with, can anyone give me any tips on what i can do to understand it more, or maybe an easier program please?
I remember that I started with Python scripts and it was a great way to get into programming. From there I started doing HTML pages then applied that to Macro which I am still (unsuccessfully :q) learning right now. I don't have any experience with Java but from what I've heard it is pretty hard for beginners.
You must learn to think like a computer. . That is to say that you don't think at all, you just execute each line of code as you come to it.
I would recommend using an IDE (integrated development environment) to program in. It will help you identify syntax errors, organize your projects, and get you started on using a debugger among other things. I'm not terribly familiar with javascript, but you could try googling "free javascript ide" or something.
thanks Odoterm, _TANSTAAFL and sick24 . I will defenitley look at IDE and check out Python. but oddoterm, i like to give myself a challenge at first. If i dont get it, then ill try HTML or CSS
