My question about Programing languajes

how useful or important is the C# and Java for Unity to create Games?

 

First of all there is no Java language in Unity, there is UnityJava. So you wont be able to use it outside Unity, just go and learn C#. Java may be easier to master, but thats just my opinion.

 

No there isn't. There is Javascript. It's actually a Unity-authored language so is sometimes called UnityScript. The code that web developers write in Javascript for their websites is pretty different to the Javascript code that Unity customers will write.

 

Go with C#

 

I meant that JavaScript is diffrent then unity java?

 

There isn't "unity java".

 

Unity doesn't support Java, as Graham says. It supports C#, Javascript, and Boo. Most people use C# and some use Javascript. For that reason I'd say it's more important that you learn C#.

 

C# is better than all other languages, which are as mere peasants in C#'s magnificent shadow

 

Not useful at all. Just hook your brain up to the matrix and think real hard about the game you want to make. You'll also learn Kung Fu in the process.

 

Let's kill some of this confusion, Java and JavaScript are completely different and unrelated. Than Unity's JavaScript is also different from JavaScripting used for web development.

I would recommend people work with C# since I persnally feel it is a better language than JavaScript and is a transferable skill that is useful elsewhere unlike JavaScript in unity. Though you can use js if you feel its less of a learning curve.

 

What math operations use the people in C# and JavaScript on Unity ?

 

That sentence makes no sense, but both languages got access to all the same math operations and both have access to all the same .net libs.

 

I dont know what sentence do you mean, is about my gramma? because im a person who still are learning english because I live in mexico and I go to the college to keel learning this languaje.

 

You got it all confused. Unityscript has identical syntax from Javascript but not from Java (they're different languages)

 

That's not true. "UnityScript" syntax is more akin to ActionScript 3.

 

UnityScript and JavaScript are nothing alike, their syntax is completely different. There is syntax that can be done in JavaScript that can't be done in UnityScript and vise versa.

If you want to choose a language go with C#. From my understanding it is more powerful that UnityScript and Boo. You are also able to look most things up on the microsoft developer site if you have issues. Also C# is the 3rd most tagged item on stackoverflow (Behind Java and JavaScript (both non-unity)) so there are lots of people who can help you. It is much harder to find help on UnityScript and Boo.

 

Whaaa! I learned JavaScript first, which allowed me to program in Unity.

And it clearly says JavaScript when I create it and it's file format is .js

 

So what about JavaC#Script? That's another one it supports, right?

 

Yeah. Unity supports C#

 

It really burns me when people don't check facts before posting guesses and assumptions as assertions

from : http://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/CreatingAndUsingScripts.html

"modelled after JavaScript" is NOT the same as "is JavaScript"

 

So you're just going by what Unity chose to name their menu entry and file extension?

That doesn't mean the syntax is identical. It isn't. Nor could it be. ECMAScript (web) JavaScript is dynamically typed and isn't even considered representative of OOP (despite many web developers best efforts). ActionScript 3 is based on a later ECMAScript spec that was more strongly typed.

I'll prove it - this will never work in Unity

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. var f = function(x, y) { return x + y; };
3. var xy = f(1, 2);
4.  

Just like this will never work if you put it on a web page

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. var aList = new List.<string>();
3.  

 

This thread is fun!

 

I have also other question, I can creat 3d and 2d games without Programing ?

 

Help yourself :

If money is not an issue, buy Playmaker from AssetStore and learn how to use it.

Otherwise, get GameMaker Studio or Scratch

 

My suggestion: learn programming.
Making a game without programming is really going to limit the freedom you have to make games.

 

Also why would you want to make games without programming? Thats the fun part.

Or you can just go modelling 3d assets. Google Blender.

 

No.
