Re: Help with choosing between Python VS. PureBasic
@severestorm1, yes, PureBASIc is good for games. But its not good for general programming, in my opinion. It has quite the good graphics and sound libs, but Python doesn't have any braces either. A simple GUI hello world in Python is as follows (note that tkinter needs some major accessibility improvements, but otherwise its nice):
import tkinter
from tkinter import ttk
class Application:
def __init__(self, root):
self.root = root
self.root.title('Hello World')
ttk.Frame(self.root, width=200, height=100).pack()
ttk.Label(self.root, text='Hello World').place(x=10, y=10)
if __name__ == '__main__':
root = tkinter.Tk()
Application(root)
root.mainloop()This example shows usage of the Frame and Label widgets, and some basic layout management using pack() and place(). Of course, this is not accessible, as I just found out. Other GUI libraries must be used, but all the same Python would be a better choice as it contains many more features related to its purpose, and many more purposes, with hundrds, if not thousands of libraries downloadable on pypi.org.
We could argue this back and fourth, but I won't. My top recommendation, though, is Python.
