ALL PRAISE YOUR SUPREME LORD CORBO

Yeah, I'd start with using Visual Basic 6. No one likes it but it's really easy to use and you can do simple and complex programs, although the more complex the less efficient it will be since VB6 can't handle much stuff.

BinEdit2 for example and many other FartyTools have been made with VB6.



fuck you all

lol.
Well, I encourage you to learn a language, but I'd appreciate if you were a little less... ah, ignorant before you started asking questions. I understand that you need to ask questions that seem a little stupid (I did myself, of course) but I mean, honestly, you need to at least know what a language is.

... Which is why I suggested Google. It would help if you (Lord Malvanis) at least had a more definite direction than just "I want to make something simple."

You can start getting to know a little bit more about it here. And more about languages here. It might help a little if you knew a little bit more about what you were asking for...

0x01 works...? The only thing I know of that appears to be a space is 0x00, and I've never tried saving it.
Also Alt codes don't let you do anything before 31.. except 9.

Hmm.. that's stupid. I never bother with alt codes, so I didn't know that. I wrote a Java game once that used binary files for data storage, so I got a couple of people at school trying to hack (hex edit) the high score with notepad, and I noticed a lot of things were getting changed to 0x20. AFAIK, anything that renders as a space in Notepad (your char encoding - without me booting into XP, does Notepad even support multiple char encodings?) is saved as 0x20.

You fail SO epicly.
Google Visual Basic. It's easier, and there's tons of tuts. If you can't find it, lol.

Visual Basic is made of fail (although ironically it was my first language not counting Microworlds/Turtle Graphics). If you need a quick and easy start to the world of programming, I would suggest Python.

Not only is it fairly simple and straightforward to get started, it's also very nicely free and open-source, and extremely cross-platform.

Thank you everyone for the help (except Excalibur, who pretty much flamed..) and encouragement.

Oh_Man -- No APM in chess. Computer just outthinks the human by seeing more moves ahead and more permutations

Oh_Man -- U reckon? Kasparov waa defeated by computer decades ago

NimoStar -- If its any consolation, the human brain would still mop the floor with this bot if it wasn't limited by the mechanical interface
[05:34 pm]
NimoStar -- Well. The bot didn't come up with any new strategy. It just has superhuman micro. Hard to beat that. I reckon even the simplest dedicated chess engines are unbeatable for humans now.

NudeRaider -- Oh_Man
Oh_Man shouted: NudeRaider did u watch the entire video? it's not one game. it's currently dominating the ladder at number 1 position. do ur research first!
Oops, caught me there, no I haven't. :( I was imagining how the game went. Sorry for that. Watching it now. brb

NudeRaider -- NimoStar
NimoStar shouted: They were not "Unprepared" that was their fifth loss in a row against the bot. The other replays are also available
that doesn't mean he was prepared. When humans come around with new strategies it often takes weeks until the pros figure out how to shut it down. Oh_Man that's certainly a way more convincing argument for micro being "too good to beat".
