The new Monkey Editor.

                                        

Monkey is a new script editor in Rhino4, a very helpful tool that you can used to edit, run, debug and compile scripts. It contains all the standard programmer editor features such as Find/Replace (with regular expressions), multi-document interface, code trees and integrated helpfiles. 

Now I’m testing this new tool…. so  I will tell you something soon.

You must download it, from here…..  http://en.wiki.mcneel.com/default.aspx/McNeel/MonkeyForRhino4.html

What´s a script???…….. First question.

                                                                                                                                                                                    Programming languages.

There’s lots of programming languages in the market, everything based in scripts. For example Rhinoscript uses the VisualBasic Language, a very easy to learn programming language.

A script is a set of instructions. The computer executes the instructions, then returns data, a value — which could be a number, a string, a list, or another data type.

What is a string?

A string is a type of data: it’s zero or more characters, it’s a string of text.

What is a character?

A character could be a single letter, digit, space, punctuation, carriage return, tab, or other code. Most characters can be typed via the keyboard.

‘A’ is a character, ‘5′ is a character, ‘(’ is a character.

“A5(” is a string — it’s three characters in a row.

Characters and strings are just two of the many types of data.
