What??? But that was the whole point of Parallel! And you aren't even the creator of Parallel, Geo is!

Uh, yeah but I decided too. Me and qucchia thought there were becoming too many languages out there on scratch…

Okay, that's fine. But I thought the point of Parallel was to introduce programmers who are bored of Scratch to other programming languages! If it's stopping on Scratch, I'm merging the project with Proli! But you can still do your “new” Parallel on Python, So be it. (Sorry if that offended anyone)

MossW, Parallel2 will still be created in Scratch. But it will be an IDE for Python, not its own programming language. We are now going to change the syntax so that it is identical to Python.
It will be a bit like https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/354014018/, but with a code editor and more functions

Yes and it will be more user friendly than idle (python's official ide) and possible builtin workarounds with a simple import command!
Eg:

i = 0
i = i + 1
print(i)
#prints 1

Whereas with the parallel workarounds:

import parallel
i = 0
i.inc()
print(i)
#prints 1

Last I heard it was going to be a Python Ide instead of a scratch language, I'm not sure if that's still happening

bug report: i read the help page, and i found the “.inc” and “.dec” commands. but for some reason, when i used the “.inc” command, it gave me an error. can you fix this?
but there's a 99% chance the developer OR a scratcher (that is not the developer) will not respond because, as opposed to older posts, this topic is dead

oops no let's actually use the bug report form that qucchia made
bug report:
Expected behaviour:
myVariable gets increased by 1

Actual behaviour:
i get an error

Steps to reproduce:
i entered something like

myNumber.inc()

Not trying to continue drama or anything, but your signatures says that you like there are too many languages

Bug Report Form

Expected behaviour:
the variable is still defined

Actual behaviour:
the variable “de-defines” itself and gives me an error when i change it but still works when i print it

Steps to reproduce:
define a variable, then print it. after that, change the variable's value.

Possible causes:
i don't really know the causes for this one.
