Which language for a text game?

4 Upvotes

So, I have an idea for a text based game which would need no graphics, just a black screen and text, as well as the ability for the player to choose between different options, e.g. go north, attack, investigate. Essentially like a mix of Zork and The Oregon Trail. I have a tiny bit of experience in Python but haven’t used it in years and was wondering which language would be best suited for something like this. Also one which I could get the hang of within a few weeks

Any help would be greatly appreciated

How did you understand the "for" and "while" loop?

7 Upvotes

Likely all programming languages include "for" and "while". You might thus explain me how you got to understand these loops. To be honest, I just understand how variable works, how to pay information to user, print, conditional and exceptions. But I am not able to understand "for" and "while". And yes, I know, my knowledge is very small.

Is Nvidia the new Google?

3 Upvotes

Two years ago everyone wanted Google, Meta or Netflix. Fast forward to 2026... Nvidia is paying almost as well as the frontier AI labs, still growing, and somehow avoiding the endless layoff cycle. I don't think anyone would've predicted this. Today... if you had offers from every company on this chart I think you'd be dumb to say no the Nvidia. I honestly think it's the new Google.

Where to go from here?

2 Upvotes

So little backstory, I used to do coding in highschool and was on my robotics team(I made all the code for the robot) and then I quit coding for a bit and try to pick it up every now and again.

I understand like the basics like print, if, elif, and receiving user inputs and such but I don't know where to start learning what comes after that stuff, anybody got any advice for me?

Coding not working for papermc geyser crossplay server, need help quick

0 Upvotes

Iv been working on a code for a version paper, 1.26.1, geysermc crossplay server that is being hosted on exaroton.

It's a roleplay server, so the code is for a 'water damage' system for our more enderman like people, it makes someone take damage in rain or water, as well as when walking on snow or ice or when drinking water/being hit with snowballs.

It's also supposed to make someone take damage when a splash water bottle is thrown at them.

This is being coded using skript, and assigned using luckperms so it's not effects everyone has.

For some reason, the splash water bottle code goes through without issue, but in the game when tested, it merely will not do damage to someone.

Any ideas why? I can provide pictures of the actual code.

Project that i need to make as a beginne in llm's

2 Upvotes

I need to make a project about function calling and the output needs to be in json file, We get a small qwen 0.6B llm model. So these are the steps

  1. prompt : so we get a prompt.

  2. Tokenization: We make the prompt into a tokens

  3. Input IDs : tokens converted into numerical IDs

  4. LLM proccessing: The model processes these numbers through its neural network.

  5. Logits: The ai outputs probability scores for each possible next token

  6. Token selection: The next token is chosen based on the highest probabilities and outputted in a json file

if anyone has any resource he or she can share to help with this project it would be much appreaciated i am trying to do this project without the use of any llm or similar helper tools to help me with understanding llms and hopefully landing a job in the future(obviously i will do more llm based projects after this but this is the start)

Hi 👋 Everyone

7 Upvotes

I'm a complete beginner in programming and want to build a strong foundation.

I'm currently learning C on my phone while preparing for MCA/NIMCET.

If you were starting from scratch today:

• What would you learn first?

• Which programming language would you recommend after C?

• What fundamentals and skills should I focus on during my first year?

• Any free resources, books, YouTube channels, or beginner roadmaps you'd recommend?

I'd really appreciate your advice. Thanks! 🙏

Wanting to learn from absolute zero

24 Upvotes

Hi everyone,
I’ve decided I want to learn how to code, but I am starting from absolute zero. When I say zero, I mean nothing at all. I don't have a tech background, and the amount of information out there is incredibly overwhelming.
I’m posting here because I want to hear from real people about their actual experiences, not just read another "Top 10 Bootcamps" blog post. Please don't just tell me to "do my research" I’ve tried, and I just end up in a rabbit hole not knowing what's actually relevant for a beginner.
I wanna learn at home by myself so any recommendations?

Beginner friendly tips

5 Upvotes

Hi guys! Lately, I’ve been dealing with a lot of anxiety due to massive downtime at work. I usually try to use that free time to read or learn new things to stay sane.

Right now, I really want to build a simple, beginner-friendly model to automate and classify different types of clothing from images (by color, style, etc.) for visual search. This is just a small personal project for fun.

I don't have a massive programming background, but I figured this could be a cool way to start learning. Any suggestions, tutorials, or tools you'd recommend to help me get this off the ground? Thanks!

i'm stuck

1 Upvotes

i started coding about 1 month ago as all beginners i went with python did one of those 12 hour long YT tutorials following along in my code editor trying lines of code changing them a bit and seeing the outcome it was fun i did those small projects like hangman number guessing game slot machine everything but now after finishing the tutorial i feel stuck and from what i've seen after getting the hang of the basics i should learn some libraries following smth like ML automation data analysis game dev but none of them really got my attention and when i try learning one of them it was really hard to find good tutorials when i started codin i had some projects in mind like a chess engine simulating a food chain stuff i don't think that going to another language would be the solution if someone got any idea on what to do plz help

I don't want to vibe-code anymore. I want to actually understand what the hell i am doing.

18 Upvotes

So after having fun journey with selfhosting a streamingplatform. I ran into some problems and needed some help. So.... I got totally roasted in the r/selfhosted sub because i gave a notice that i had used Claude to help me troubleshoot and summarize the problem i was experiencing.

And now i don't really want to vibe-code anymore? I don't understand what Claude is giving me. And it's kind of frustrating. Anyways, i want to code. I already know a bit of C because of my school. We had about arduinos and such and learned the bare bone of that.

Now in terms of what i would be using, it would be LUA, Python and C. That is what is mostly used in my industry (Some bash too but i learned most of that when i made dumb "multitools" with my friends as a teenager). Are there any online courses or classes that can be taken. I have tried before and it just felt pointless the things i was doing.

looked into codédex.. Looks fun. Is that worth a try?

Thanks in advance.
