 1 - Computers and ComputingTo properly understand the design and master the implementation of the C++ programming language, it is necessary to have a general familiarity with the basic computer components and their function, and recognize how instructions are translated into machine language code. 2 - General Features of C++ In this chapter, we explain how to write, compile, and execute (run) a basic C++ program. 3 - Programming in C++ Having illustrated the general structure of a C++ program, we now turn to discussing the basic operators, commands, and logical constructs. Most of these are either identical or similar to those encountered in other languages. 4 - User-Defined Functions discusses user-defined functions with an emphasis on scientific computing. 5 - Pointers A pointer is the identification number of a variable or function, assigned by the CPU on execution. A pointer can be used to identify a variable in the memory bank, reserve space for new data, and erase unwanted data to eliminate memory leaks. 6 - explains the basic principles of object oriented programming (OOP) and the implementation of classes. 7 - Graphics Programming with VOGLE Discusse the fundamentals of graphics programming based on the Vogle graphics library. 8 - Graphics Programming with GLUT, GLUI, and GTK+ In this chapter, we discuss further concepts of graphics programming based on the commercial-grade Glut, Glui, and Gtk+ utility toolboxes. All three are freely available for a variety of platforms: • Glut is built on the OpenGL graphics library, which is the industry standard for a broad range of free software and commercial applications. • Glui is built on Glut to provide a Graphical User Interface (GUI) equipped with controls such as buttons, check-boxes, and radio buttons. 9 - Using Matlab In this chapter, we explain how Matlab can be called from C++ code for the purpose of using the Matlab mathematical functions and generating graphics. The converse, calling C++ functions from a Matlab code, is also possible, though of limited interest to the C++ programmer. Download free ebooks for c++: Introduction to C++ Programming and Graphics
