Are there any programs that i can use Actionscript 3.0 with that are free?

I really want to learn Actionscript 3.0 with a program that is free forever.





If not are there any other programming languages that i could learn other than C++ and what free programs do they use.





If this helps the reason I am asking is because I want to learn how to make games.Are there any programs that i can use Actionscript 3.0 with that are free?
Python is a great one to go with. There is the PyGame package you can download (also free) that's designed for doing animations. You can use it with the Eclipse IDE + PyDev plug-in (http://www.eclipse.org and http://pydev.org both are free).Are there any programs that i can use Actionscript 3.0 with that are free?
Well for one i can tell you c++ would be the best to go with there loads of programs to make code in and as far as learning my friend it helps if you go to your local book store and find a good book and stay with it Actionscript not gonna do you anygood really with out flash and last time i checked flash costed alot and also there alot more you can do with actionsctipt then make games maybe google a lil bit later
