The book covers elementary concepts, from how to produce simple graphical objects using logical coordinates to producing filled regions. The book reinforces concepts with useful and simple examples, then progresses to applied geometry (vectors, polygons) and then onto how to perform rotations and other transformations of graphical objects. 
In a logical progression of ideas, the reader is introduced to some of the classic graphics algorithms and finally to chapters which cover particular effects such as perspective drawings and hidden-face and hidden-line elimination. The book also provides a host of ready-to-run programs and worked examples to illuminate general principles and geometric techniques for the creation of both 2D and 3D graphical objects.

One of the attractive aspects of C++ is that it offers good facilities for object-oriented programming (OOP), but, as a hybrid language, it also supports procedural programming. The significance of this for programmers is that it offers more flexibility allowing them to shift to object-oriented programming if and when they feel the need to do so. In this regard, C++ differs from some purely object-oriented languages, such as Smalltalk, Eiffel and Java. This book offers practical guidance on how to programme in both styles. The C++ language and its standard library have gone through a good many improvements and extensions during their evolution. This third edition has therefore been completely revised in accordance with the C++ language revision, which is embodied in the ANSI/ISO C++ Standard. For example, the new, important type string is used throughout the book and the Standard Template Library (STL) is introduced to readers at an early stage and discussed in more detail later on. All example programs and the solutions to the exercises can be downloaded from the website. http://home.wxs.nl/ ~ammeraal/ Solutions for some of these exercises can be found in the appendix.

C++ for Programmers , 3rd Edition

Networking & Cloud Computing

A clear and concise introduction to the C programming language, focusing on those features of C not available in other languages. Includes a complete explanation of the language and numerous programs -- providing valuable instruction not only in learning C but also in understanding real applications. Includes an elegant and efficient sorting method for files, known as a natural merge sort, as well as a program for binary file search which demonstrates how to update a file with direct access.

Introduction to C for Programmers

This unique work details a set of general graphics routines that C programmers can apply not only to the original IBM color graphics adapter but also to the popular Hercules Graphics Card and compatible monochrome graphics adapters. Focusing on low-level routines, text defines and discusses the elementary routines initgr, move, draw, and endgr. Concrete examples of both hardware and software are used to illustrate the range of graphics capabilites on both vector and raster devices. Gradually moving from elementary to more complex applications, the book offers a complete definition of the ASCII character font, enabling users to alter the dot patterns of existing characters and define new ones. Also contains a complete interactive program which draws on the tools developed in the book for sketching and drawing. For those who want to use a mouse as a graphics input device, the book offers an appendix with a demonstration program.

Computer Graphics for the IBM? PC

Discusses the capabilities of available software and how to use and modify the different programs. Techniques covered include 3D rotations, space curves, Platonic solids, several ways of approximating a sphere, B-spline surface fitting, and hidden-line elimination. Describes how to display perspective views of three-dimensional solids via an interactive program called D3D. Includes the complete source text for all software under discussion. The author uses an IBM PC (or compatible) and the C programming language (or Turbo C), along with a graphics adaptor (such as CGA, EGA, VGA, or HGA), but the techniques are mostly machine-independent.

Interactive 3D Computer Graphics

Turbo C version 2.0 from Borland International offers an extensive set of graphics routines, and attention has now shifted from developing basic graphics tools towards using the wide range of tools available. This book allows readers to take advantage of Turbo C by providing illustrated examples of graphics applications, ranging from a simple triangle to a complete interactive drawing program. Provides details of fundamental Turbo C functions; the aspect ratio, circles, arcs, and lines of any width; how to obtain graphics results that can be incorporated into text documents, as well as the use of the Hewlett-Packard Graphic Language, especially in connection with desktop publishing; and the Turbo C funcions associated with viewports and stored images. Also shows how to get input data from a mouse for developing a mouse-controlled drawing program (MSDRAW), including the complete source text.

Graphics Programming in Turbo C

ANSI has made C a superior programming language for those who teach practical subjects. It covers language rules, expressions and statements, functions and program structures, arrays, pointers, strings, input and output and much more. Includes exercises to clarify the language elements discussed and interesting programs that deal with sorting, permutations, combinations, linear lists, binary trees and systems of linear equations, the latter without any built-in restrictions on the number of equations.

C for Programmers: A Complete Tutorial Based on the ANSI Standard, 2nd Edition

Programming Languages

A complete presentation of the C++ computer programming language and the new programming style known as object-oriented programming. The author uses simple and complete programs as examples and for programming exercises and focuses on the way this multi-purpose language can be used to perform a whole range of programming tasks. Includes C standard I/O and stream I/O methods.

C++ For Programmers (Wiley Professional Computing)

Programs and Data Structures in C Based on ANSI C and C++ Second Edition Leendert Ammeraal Hogeschool Utrecht, The Netherlands Reviews of the first edition: ‘Because this book explains a lot of simple tricks and useful techniques to speed up common programming tasks it is a useful addition to conventional textbooks dealing with more theoretical aspects of programming.’ Journal of New Generation Computer Systems ‘The book is especially suitable for advanced programmers who need searching and sorting methods. But it is also a help for the newcomer.’ Journal of Information Processing &amp; Cybernetics This book is designed to help you develop and reinforce your programming skills either for self-study or alongside a course text. All programs and exercises conform to the new ANSI C Standard, are accessible for those using either a C or C++ compiler, and are machine independent. The author shows how to use advanced programming techniques, including dynamic data structures, and the emphasis throughout is on how to achieve correctness and efficiency. There is a particular focus on the storage and retrieval of large amounts of data using data structures such as AVL trees and B-trees. Other useful algorithms discussed include those for the generation of permutations, dynamic programming, the criticalpath method, and the evaluation of arithmetic expressions. For the experienced programmer converting to C (or C++), or the beginning student, the wealth of programs, exercises and hints provided here will help increase your programming speed and efficiency.

Programs and Data Structures in C: Based on ANSI C and C++, 2nd Edition
