Basic C++ Tutorial, Lesson 1 Complete!

Yes, I am writing a C++ Tutorial in XHTML 1.0 and CSS 2.1. Congrats to me for keeping it with the Standard! Anyways, if there are ANY Parts that confuse you, post them here and I'll try to simplify them. This Tutorial is to get some Game Maker users to switch to C++. It will also teach you how to make Cross-Platform Games using the Popular Multi-Platform Library SDL.

Current Lessons:
Lesson 1: Writing to a Console Window(FINAL)

I'm a Mac user, so this is a no go for me.

Good initiative, wrong target

False. The Tutorial is for ALL OSes!

No, I think MFGG needs a good lesson in this

And I'd agree. But you're going to have a hard time forcing all the game maker users who puts no efford into their projects to change to something that requires full dedication.

Ban Game Maker?

Umm, dude...
C++ is PC-only

haha


HA HA HA HA HA

C++ is Cross-Platform!

Each OS has a different Executable Type. For each OS, the standard GNU GCC has to be ported to it.

Holy **** I never...

AHAHAHAHAHA

Sorry, it's just. I never thought anyone would even think C++ was PC ONLY.

I'm sorry. If I offended you, sorry. Just about EVERY Program for Windows, GNU/Linux, and Macintosh is programmed in C++.

then why can it compile for DS

There's a difference, though. Everything is usually based off C/C++, which means everything can essentially convert from or to C/C++. However, this requires a way to convert these formats, which we do not know how to do. Therefore this is limited to PC.

PC as in Computer and not just Windows?

Yes. PC stands for Personal Computer. C/C++ is unlimited to OSes as far as I know.

K, cause the way ZFGN_Scout said it made it sound like he thought PC meant Windows, so I needed to make sure you were using it the correct way instead of his way.

If it's offensive, then I'll remove it.

Wut.

That was rude to Mac Users. If you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all. And yes, I am *slightly* a Hypocrite.

Err, sorry. I removed it.

Although it may be offensive, Macs seem to be a lot less "personal" IMO.

if anything Mac is alot more about personalizing your computer than Windows. So I don't really see your point.

In b4 Windows vs Mac War.
Please don't start a war. Let's drop it and pretend Retro never said that.
