hey! I am ExercuitCodicem, or well known as FOXmcloud021.
I am here today to share some facts about myself.
I am FOX, or you can call me Wesley. I, however, mostly prefer you call me Wes or VVes if you want to go with that.
I am 13 and I am a furry :3
So, yeah.
My story starts in 2012, my family got a computer from a garage sale and I decided to make a ROBLOX account. Thus, started my adventure. As you could imagine, at the age of 10, I was a really big noob and a huge annoyance to others. People would make fun of me and nobody really liked me for being new. So I tried to overly fit in with the crowd, which ended up pretty bad.

After a year of scrambling around, playing games, making friends, I discovered the magic of scripting. The concept was so cool and interesting, I decided to try to make my own games. It was my time to step into the light and try something new. During the time of this, I was also an artist and liked to cartoon and draw and whatnot, it was more of a fun hobby.

What I defined as scripting at the time was just a bunch of copy and pasting from the ROBLOX forums and claiming myself to be 'skilled,' which was kinda dumb and I regret ever being 10-11 years old. I was suddenly given the gift of Minecraft and I trailed off of ROBLOX with my stupid elementary mind. I used to think MC was better than ROBLOX. LOL. About half a year later, I came back to ROBLOX and started to lose friends.

They all went offline for good and never got to say goodbye. Others were hacked or grounded and I was stripped away from good friends. I was, during the time, getting extremely depressed with trying to balance my artistic life with my computer life as well as my school life and started to slowly and mentally deteriorate. Life was going downhill for me, I was growing up and losing things that I didn't want to lose and grown out of things I liked. I know that I wasn't suffering from depression, but I felt highly depressed for that time period

A few fuzzy years later, I went on to create my first legit game around the late age of 12 years old. It was a proof of concept spiraling around the game Papers, Please and I tried to make the game as good as I could to the best of my scripting ability.
As a matter of fact, many people still play it today and the reddit community liked my work! Now I am in the process of making some awesome games that I hope to release soon. I am currently making a Battleblock theater style game and it is going very well.

That is my story, I hope you like it. It's not that important, I guess. Thanks for reading it if you did!

Well, I made a small proof of concept game to try and emulate the core elements of the hit Indie title "Papers, Please"
Now I am making a hide and seek tag game as well as Battleblox Theater, a ROBLOX version of "BattleBlock theater"

Small details I neglected to add on fear of the max numbers limit:

I found out that I was a furry during the second half of me being 12 years old. I found myself watching lots of Anthro related Disney movies (I.e. Fox and the hound, Robin Hood, lion king, etc.) and playing anthro related video games (mostly StarFox.) But StarFox really fueled the fire. I played StarFox Adventures, which is when the 3rd person adventure concept was introduced to the game. Was surrounded by anthropomorphism. It was everywhere, I guess the culture just grew on me. I loved to draw and found furry art quite interesting, so I couldn't resist not being a furry. Everything was just lined up so perfectly.

So that is why I am a furry ;)

Really neat that you can teach yourself these kind of things and enjoy it. Just wait till you start branching out to other languages like C++

using namespace std;

int main()
{
string name;
cout << "What is your name?";
cin >> name;
cout << endl;

if (name == int)
{
cout << "names don't have numbers silly!" << endl;
}
else
{
cout << "your name is" << name << endl;
}

system("pause");
return 0;
}

Is that C++???
It looks a lot like Java to me and I hate Java with a burning passion

Maybe it's the {}'s

Yeah, that's it

I kinda have a brain trigger that notes out whenever it spots apron ramming language that excessively uses {}'s


Strange

yeah its C++

and you really hate java? why? is it the format structure or the syntax?
I know a lot of people really enjoy java for how beautiful the code is

but either way, I started out with python which is a lot less "{" symbol stuff so it was hard transition over a cleaner type of program to something bulky like C++

but either was Lua gets annoying having to say "end" for each statement command

I just found Lua simpler than the rest. I don't know why.
I think it is also ROBLOX's engine. It is so simple to use and it is fun to use when making games.
Lua is like my best friend and I will stick with Lua until I die

However, I may try to get into Java sometime

Roblox Lua is a lot simpler than most programs.

Unfortunately, Lua is not a very popular program language. Which is why its always good to know 3-4 languages. Java, C++, and HTML are all very good languages to learn.

And for some reason, Java really confuses me
Like
public static void variables and which goes where and making multiple classes for one program, it is just overly confusing to me

I remember doing HTML
I didn't really get into the thick of it, mostly toe basic construction of the website and what goes where, etc.
I really want to try PHP, tho

yeah classes can be very intimidating but once you get use to classes they are EXTREMELY helpful for larger programs. Classes help organize everything and make it easier to go inside the program if there is any errors.

Here is my latest C++ project! It's a Tic Tac Toe game and you play against the computer! I also used classes in here which helps a ton.

Here's my class header file first:
class TicTacToe
{
public:
TicTacToe(); // constructor
void print(); // print the current content of the grid
void play_by_user(); // user’s turn to mark a cell of the grid
void play_by_computer(); // computer’s turn to mark a cell
// other member functions you need come here
char win(); //determines if the user wins
private:
char ggrid[3][3]; // SIZE should be 3
// a SIZE * SIZE array to represent the grid
};

and my source code

//include libraries
#include < iostream >
#include "TicTac.h"
#include < string >

using namespace std;

//Class Function TicTacToe
TicTacToe::TicTacToe() // constructor
{
// nested for loop to create the grid
for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++){
for(int j = 0; j <3; j++)
{
// grid variable
ggrid[i][j] = '?';
}
}
}

void TicTacToe::print() //prints the current content of the grid
{
// grid board
cout << " 0" << " 1" << " 2" << endl;
cout << " 0 " << ggrid[0][0] << " " << ggrid[0][1] << " " << ggrid[0][2] << endl;
cout << " 1 " << ggrid[1][0] << " " << ggrid[1][1] << " " << ggrid[1][2] << endl;
cout << " 2 " << ggrid[2][0] << " " << ggrid[2][1] << " " << ggrid[2][2] << endl;

}


void TicTacToe::play_by_user() //user's turn to mark a cell of the grid
{
//initialize variables
bool user = false;
int row;
int column;

// while loop for if bool variable is false
while (!user)
{
// ask user what cell they would like to mark
cout << "Which cell would you like to mark? (row and column): ";
cin >> row >> column;

// data validation to make sure the user enters the right parameters
if ((row < 0 || row > 2) || (column < 0 || column > 2))
{
cout << " " << endl;
cout << "Invalid Cell Position! Please try again.. " << endl;
cout << " " << endl;
}

// data validation to make sure the user doesnt enter a cell thats already been marked
else if (ggrid[row][column] != '?'){
cout << " " << endl;
cout << "Invalid Cell Position! Please try again.. " << endl;
cout << " " << endl;
}

// else print the letter U of the users choice
else
{
ggrid[row][column] = 'U';
// bool variable turns true to end the while loop
user = true;
}
}
}

{
// initialize variables and bool variable
int row;
int column;
bool valid = false;

// while valid is not false
while(!valid)
{
// have the computer input a random row and column
row = rand() % 3;
column = rand() % 3;

// if the grid had a question mark and was available then replace
if (ggrid[row][column] == '?')
{
// replace the question mark with 'C'
ggrid[row][column] = 'C';
// set bool variable to true to get out of while loop
valid = true;
}
}
}

char TicTacToe::win() // determines if user wins or not
{
// set char variable winner as zero
char winner = '0';

// if statements for all possibilites of winning

Woah, I just had a seizure reading that
I will track this thread so I can study how it works
(If you don't mind, I just want to observe and try to experiment)

haha of course man, if I didn't want you to look at my source code I wouldn't of posted it

its a simple program, I just need to figure out a way to make the computer smarter now. it's way too easy to beat the computer, it literally does the opposite of what the user does so its easy to manipulate.

That's interesting.
Many AIs and computers I have studied in games and apps have this kind of behavior

I want to see what else is possible in C++
But first I should finish my main priority and finish Battleblox Theater on my main

Oooh, what's 'pseudo code'?
I have really only heard of Pseudo Animation, which is the style of animation used in weapons for Strife and Black Magic.

However, pseudo code sounds interesting


I think it's the word pseudo
There's something about it
Pseeeeuddoooooooo
