AS:Main

some one might of coverd this but im not sure but its very helpfull

ok now i got a new book and its called "Beginning Flash Game Programming for Dummies" its a very good book for beginners and theres one thing that helped me very well and is used alot. after i read about them i came closer to understanding and writing AS.

I know this will be good for noobs and maybe other people

{ } (braces) for ending functions

(colon) for ending case statements

" " (double quotes) for outputting text

= (equal) assignment operator

== (equal) comparison operator

! (exclamation point) literal value

// (forward slashes) for indicating comments

> (greater than) comparison operator

>= (greater than or equal to) comparison operator

< (less than) comparison operator

<= (less than or equal to) comparison operator

| | (logical or) character

!= (not equal) comparison operator

( ) (parentheses) for indicating conditions

ok thats all i read about in this book so if theres more please tell me.
i hope this tutorial help alot of people. It helped me with alot and i hope you liked it

Ok, half of it is wrong ({ and } both end functions?) and you missed stuff out. Plus it's been done before, with better explanation (well any explanation would be better than yours) and grammar. Plus you missed some stuff out (e.g. strict equality, strict inequality). Ok.

How can it help you? What the hell do you expect "=" to mean?!

It looks like you've jt copied and pasted out of the Macromedia Dictionary. But i suppose you couldn't of because some of its wrong.
You need to make a tutorial, not a list of things.
