heh well I did ask what he needed to know, he said he knew the basics on loops and commands. Though he requested some progies so he could reverse engineer them.

The stuff I posted, well in my oppinion, is relatively easy. The most difficult thing in it is the array of records. The rest is all a combo of IF, WHILE, FOR, REPEAT, CASE, statements. Got some stuff in there can read/write files.

The last one I posted is huge! but well documented. He shouldn't have a problem with it. :whistle:

I just glanced through your programs. The comments inside them are informative, but still....

Hey, I've been recently working on making a Bloodrayne MOD, which includes a lot of messing around with the script files. The game's program language resembles Pascal and C to a degree, and I managed to get the hang of it quickly. So with Pascal all I gotta do is learning the commands.

Hmm... if I get how you did it, I might manage to create a better version of some script converter for Bloodrayn I did using an editor tool before (it had its own language, but closely resembling Pascal).

pascal is a cool language. much better than c imho. btw, you might want to check out delphi. it's basically a form of "visual pascal" and it has all kinds of nice features like nice opengl bindings available, just in case you ever wanted to code games or demos.

if you know any basic languages, pascal is not too far off.
now, I should learn pascal then aswell...

I did Pascal and also now do it in school.
But in my opinion C is much better and "faster programs" are compiled vith gcc, and it is a base for learning object programing like c++.

:ot: C is NOT a base for learning OOP. C is as procedural as it gets. It will teach you squat about OOP. ^It might^ make learning C++ a bit easier, but only because of syntax similarities and because the word 'pointer' doesn't freak you out anymore (it does freak me out though, so give me Java anytime :P ).
There are some people who claim you could program quasi-OOP in C if you really wanted... I don't believe them... :ot:

It's great that you really like C, but it's not really useful to make such a comment in a "I need to learn Pascal"-thread, now is it?

Got you. And now back to the pascal.
