. Yes…I did have to look it up to make sure I got it right 😞Never heard of Red, I need to read up to on it.
The biggest draw with Red for me was how quickly you can put together a simple GUI program. IIRC, you just need to download the GUI version of Red, there are no extra dependencies or framework. That said, I didn’t get to play with the GUI aspect of it much in exercism’s exercises. I suspect the test runners wouldn’t have supported it.
The syntax definitely took some getting used to. I found the official documentation a bit lacking, but combined with Red by Example…and peeking at other people’s code 🙃, I was able to get somewhere with it.
A few links to get you started, if you like:
Hope that’s useful!
Thanks for the jumpstart! I’ll start playing with Red soon.
