You may have seen Minecraft used to teach programming or even mods that allow in-game programming however, writing BASIC code within Minecraft? This is a rarity. SethBling created a BASIC interpreter that allows you to compile and execute simple scripts and programs within Mojang's world-building games. It's easy to use many, many commands blocks, but it works. You can print text, and include in-game robots ("turtles") accomplish tasks. Do you need to dig a long tunnel for your project? Just start a digging script and let the bot take care of all the hard work. Suffice it to say that you will not write complex software for a game that wasn't intended for it. Code is notoriously slow due to Minecraft's 20Hz operating clock (you cannot execute more than 20 commands per second) and it gets progressively slowed down the more you use it. But, you don't have to create a whole week of the interpreter by yourself. SethBling has published the necessary material, so it's just to install the add-on and brushing up on your IF/THEN statements.Minecraft servers
