Broadcast?

HI All,

Obviously scratch uses the broadcast in many of its programming applications.

Is this something that would be used in higher level programming languages such as C++ and Java?

Thanks for all the support on the forums  smile

I only know HTML and Scratch, so... I have no idea.

Re: Broadcast?

Broadcasts are kind of like functions/methods in higher languages.  Basically, a function is a chunk of script that can be executed simply by using the function's name.  However procedures are arguably more function-like than broadcasts.
