Learn programming with GDScript (Part 2)

Күн бұрын

Hello Godotneers! In this second video about learning programming with GDScript we'll look at what objects, properties and methods are and how we can describe them in classes to model real-world objects inside of a computer program. We'll also check out what Arrays and Dictionaries do and how we can use them in certain scenarios to make lists and look-up-tables and streamline our code quite a bit with them. Finally we're having a look at how we can use all the things that we learned in these two videos to get started with our own projects. So join in for the second part and continue on your Godot learning journey!

First of all i wanted to express my sincerest gratitude for your awesome work like many before me. Your style of doing something the most straightforward and simplest way and then correcting "yourself" has not just opened my eyes to a broadened and systematic way of looking at solving problems more than once (especially in your UI and data model videos), it also impressed me in regards to teaching techniques. Just a little side note from me as a fellow german. While you can use "before" positionally like you do in your video, most of the time it is either used temporal ("i was a bad programner before watching your video") or in a more abstract positional way like "sitting before the jury/judge". Your use of the word (function: "item_before_me) sounds very german to me and maybe you would be more on the safe side if you'd use "in front" instead. Not trying to nitpick only trying to give constructive feedback. But maybe it only sounds strange to me and our englisch native speaking friends would disagree. Best wishes

@godotneers 2 ай бұрын

I'm honestly not sure about "before". I've seen it used in different ways and the dictionaries also have direct positional examples like "we sat before the fire", "he stood before me". Maybe a native speaker can shed some light on this?

@Red-ys5qf 2 ай бұрын

@@godotneers Native speaker here! I would say that using "in front" is more common, at least colloquially, than "before" in the context you mentioned. From my experience, I usually see sentences like "we sat before the fire" or "he stood before me" in more formal settings like literature.

@SootytheMagicalBear 2 ай бұрын

Another great video and demonstration project. Will there be a part 3? Also this part is melting my brain, I don't quite get how the variable gets the item name from the for loop. Or is it just because the Array and Dictionary share the names of the items? for item_name: String in item_names: var price_for_item = menu[item_name] total_price += price_for_item

@LEDLearningeveryday 2 ай бұрын

First of all, thank you for your very helpful tutorials. As a teacher I appreciate your style of teaching by showing how to solve problems instead of just quick fixing them. So I have a question about the dictionaries: To me it is not quite obvious, what the real benefit of a dicitionary is? The price of the item from your example illustrates this very good, because for me this would be something to include as a property in the class item like the item_name (#DataModels). This has the benefit, that whenever I create a new item I don't have to update the dictionary. Maybe you could give an example for a feature of a game, which can't be/shouldn't be handled via a data model but rather by a dictionary. Liebe Grüße aus Deutschland

@godotneers 2 ай бұрын

Dictionaries are mostly useful as lookup tables because they can very quickly find an item for a given key. If you want to store structured data, you can technically use a dictionary for that but a class is usually the better choice for this because you can give proper types to all properties and you get auto-complete. Dictionaries can also be used as a "Set" which is a data structure available in other programming languages. Say you have 5000 items identified by their ID and you want to know whether or not you have an item with a certain ID. If you use an Array to store the items, you will have to traverse 5000 items in the worst case to find out whether or not you have one with a given ID. If you use a dictionary for this (ID is key, item is value) your lookup will be a *_lot_* quicker.

@@godotneers Thank you for your time. By the way: It would be very helpful for me if you could show in a tutorial how to use/setup the versioncontrol via github for a godot project. If this topic doesn't make it to the top of your videoideas, never mind. I still will watch your videos ;)

Is there a way to use say() method outside of what_should_i_do() function? I'm trying to use say() in _input() function and it's not working there. UPD: i've found a way to do that - expand Mr G node and use speech_bubble's node method say()
