Console Help

[Storm33229]

Ok, i was just curios and needed some help on what i can do with consoles!

Well i figured out how to make the console write lines:

console.writeline ("text");

so i was wandering if there was any thing else i can do i consoles...

preferebley make it so i can ask a question and then a random anser comes up...

Also how do i let the user write a line in for an answer??

If i knew this itd solve my problem hehe

Console.WriteLine wont do that by itself, you need to write your own script to have that functionality, if you dont know how to script then you will need to learn or become a subscriber and request it in the subscriber forums...

Console.Readline

[Storm33229]

so i enter Console.Readline then that enables me to type stuff in??

if so would i do:

get Answer

then answer would be scripted as a class...

wich would be

Answer = (utility.random (yes,no));

[Storm33229]

what i mean by this is:

using System;

namespace EightBall
{
class MainClass
{
 
 public static void Main(string[] args)
 {
  Console.WriteLine ("what is your question");
  Console.ReadLine();
  Console.get (answer);
 }
}
}

or other is:

  Console.WriteLine ("what is your question");
  Console.ReadLine();
  get (answer);

But without it having console (me not being at MY computer i cant use my debbugger so i dont know if it would write the answer onto the console.

[Phantom]

Console.get (answer);

That makes no sense whats so ever.

Come back after your at your computer, not going to waste my time trying to help you if your going to claim thats suppose to be valid code.

Only the Admin will ever see the Console. It will only display on the pc that is actually running the server, not on client computers.

[Storm33229]

lol, well i am sorry but this is my first time trying to code an actuall program... so I just go by what makes just a little sense...

when i say Console.get (answer); i am saying the console should Write the answer on a line just like ud say Console.WriteLine("text");

[David]

string answer = Console.ReadLine();

[Phantom]

Like I said...

Come back when you can actually test your ideas, otherwise were just doing the work which is a waste of time.

[Storm33229]

thank you david and sorry phantom... i would have tested that if i was there
any ways david as for CONSOLES uhm this script isnt for ruo hehe its just a program. i was told get good @ C then do RUO so thats what im trying to accomplish... and i wanted this to be my first program

[Phantom]

I really hope your not learning C or your in trouble..

Because the differences between C and C# are to many to list on 100mb text document.

And since when does C have namespaces (or structures supporting methods) Phantom? I don't believe I've ever seen Console.WriteLine used in a C program before .

[Phantom]

Which is my point...

Read what he said, there is a big difference between the two.

[Sep102]

And my point, he obviously meant C# instead of C. He wouldn't be writing code such as that if he were learning C, you know, after all, not a line of that code that he wrote would work in a C program.

On the other side, if he is trying to learn C and not C#, I agree, long ways off.

[Storm33229]

lol i thot they were the same
i just thot C and C# were same but C just didnt have the # thing on it

[David]

The point being he is trying to learn. Phantom, isn't that what you get worked up about others not doing?

Storm ask your questions, if you get flamed report the post and I will take a look.

(And no, not the same at all really. Most say C# is closer to java that it is to C, I never learned java though...)

[Sep102]

Yes, C# is much closer to Java than to C or C++ (though it is much closer to C++ than to C). C# is supposed to be Microsoft's answer to Java, thus C# rips off a lot of Java's features and adds some of its own.

thank you and i noticed that flash and VB have similar commands but i dont think vb and flash have name space lines of code.

[Storm33229]

I have received help from a friend of mine and his said this is the correct code:

  using System;
 
 namespace EightBall
 {
 	class EightBall
 	{
   [STAThread]
   static void Main(string[] args)
   {
   	Console.Write("What is your question? ");
   	string answer = Console.ReadLine();
 
   	Console.Write("The answer to your question > " + answer + " is ");
 
   	Random numb = new Random();
   	int ans = numb.Next(2);
   	switch(ans)
   	{
     case 0: Console.WriteLine("yes");break;
     case 1: Console.WriteLine("no");break;
   	}
   }
 	}
 }

And

random numb

is randone case basically ( i think ) and

int ans = numb.next(2);

is the number of cases.

well my question is why did he say

 = new random();

when you already have the random
or is it just like alot of things in runuo u have to create them along with declaring them??

PS. your code

utility.random

( I just learned ) dosnt work for the rest of C# it just works for RUO lol
