C++ Programming for Games Module I

C++ is a powerful language that unifies high-level programming paradigms, such as object oriented programming, with low-level efficiencies, such as the ability to directly manipulate memory. For these reasons, C++ has been embraced as the language of choice among game developers. C++ fulfills the need for high-level language constructs which aid in the organization of building complex virtual worlds, but is also able to perform low-level optimizations in order to squeeze out extra performance for such things as sophisticated special effects, realistic physics, and complex artificial intelligence....
