What's a very basic movement script for a character in a platform game?

I’m going to create a character in GIMP and import it to a Unity project, I’d like to make it move left and right and jump.

I’m rubbish at scripting so what’s a very basic movement script?

Start at the beginning and break it down into smaller pieces! Most of the tutorials that you’ve done so far have this feature. Do you have the code to detect keyboard input? Typically Jump is the space bar Unity - Scripting API: Input.GetKeyDown

At my place in the library script you can find a full script : Super Mario like movement with double jumping and flipping the gameObject 2D
