I'm trying to learn C#, but I've always sucked at coding. I do like it so far though. And I don't want to come off as rude or insulting about BGT, but i think the arrays and dictionaries are kind of inflexible compared to Lua and Python. Lua's a very flexible scripting language, where the arrays, (called tables in Lua), can be any size and don't have to have their size stated at creation. Tables in Lua can also hold more than one type of variable. And variables can hold any data type Python is good too, but I'm not a fan of the indenting for if statements and loops and such. I find I easily keep track of what's going on if there are {} instead of indents. And I'm vary new to C#, but am liking it so far. And I'm loving visual studio 2015 community. It's an awesome editor and it has this thing called Intellisense, where it helps you with build in functions, or functions from any lib. For example, if I want to print a line to the console, it's Console.WriteLine. Well, when i type con, a list below my typing is populating with stuff, and if console is the first option, you just hit enter on it then you do a .wri, and options come up. It even reads your own code, if you do classes, it'll allow you to access the functions inside them when you create an instance down the line, Intellisense will automatically show you the options of stuff you've done. It's really nice. Also, for the sighties, there are red squiggly lines that come up similar to spell checkers. When you see one on an entire line, you fucked up somewhere and you should check that line, or the line above it, but if its at the end of the line only, you probably just forgot a semi colon. I also like the way in which you can add values of variables into strings. You don't need to concatenate the strings. for example, in BGT, you could do.
string name=Yer mom
int age=45
alert("Yo", + name + "is " + age + " years old.");
In C#, It's a bit different, you use a place holder, now i must admit I've only tested it with one variable per print thingy, I don't know if you increase in number or do more of them, but it would look like this.
string name = "Bob";
Console.WriteLine("Hi there, my name is {0}, nice to meet you"., name);
So you see, you don't have to break out of your string, and piece them together, you can simply use the placeholder, the comma then the variable name just takes that placeholder and replaces it with a value.
Oh, and BTW, VS is a great IDE, it supports endless different stuff, including python, actually.
