Game C++ Programming: A Practical Introduction

By Kenwright

Game C++ Programming A Practical Introduction presents a beginners approach to writing concise and clear programs for real-time gaming environments. We give simplified implementation examples to help the reader gain a solid understanding while mentioning pitfalls and tricks. The book explains basic principles all the way through to testing and coding, while illustrating and demonstrating examples to give the reader a solid grasp of the topic.The book follows a beginners approach, introducing principles and problems related to the different C++ concepts, including arrays, vectors, and pointers. All in all, the book presents a practical point of view with implementation details, limitations, engineering workarounds and common pitfalls. Master the basic maths and principles needed to write fast, robust and clear software programsCode real-time simulations, such as animated graphics and physics systemsUnderstand how to write code quickly and reliably that can be read by others easily and quickly Develop an understanding of programming C++ inaccuracies, numerical problems, approximations and how to deal with them

Power of Words / The reading view

A new perspective is creative fuel.

There is a strong reading opportunity in the space between Game Programming and Books. “Game C++ Programming: A Practical Introduction” brings those listed subjects onto the same shelf and gives your next question a place to start. Games bring rules, feedback, and interaction into a single working experience. Give the reading a playful destination: one mechanic or interaction that you can explain, change, and share. Use the subject to make something understandable: a sketch, a visual comparison, or a small demonstration. Choose the relationship that matters and give it a form another person can follow. Pick a question. Open a book. See where it takes you.
