Direct3D with C#

Direct 3D is an API used for displaying applications with rich multimedia content. You can add 2D/3D graphics, video and sound in your application. You can also create 3D engines for video games. Direct Graphics is the portion of API that deals with the graphics of a direct 3D application. It is oriented towards 3D design but it also works well for 2D graphics. In order to use sound you have to use the functions of Direct Sound.

Console INPUT/OUTPUT

To read some text from the command line you use the Console.Read or Console.ReadLine method implemented in the .net framework. The difference between them is that the Console.Read method reads the next character from the command line, whereas Console.ReadLine reads the next line of characters instead of just a simple character. The Console.Read method returns an integer and should be cast to a char during the input. There is also a special function called Console.ReadKey( Boolean display) which obtains the key that is pressed on the keyboard and if the display parameter is false it depicts it.

The SWITCH Statement in C#

The switch statement offers the programmer the capability to choose a specific block of code from a set of mutually exclusive ones. It is similar but not identical to the if statement. The block of code that will be chosen is not known before the execution of the program. This can be for example due to different windows platform or specific localization settings of each country.

Classes and Object-Oriented Programming in PHP

In this tutorial introduce you to the concept of Classes and Objects in PHP. To put it simply, an Object in the context of programming languages is a data structure which can contain any number of variables and functions all held together under a Class name. This Class can then be created in the normal scope of the code and stored inside a new variable, and multiple copies of this same class can be created. This allows for an even greater level of code encapsulation, allowing more complexity to be accessed from simple commands.

XML Serialization in C#

Serialization is the process of persisting an object to disk. Another application can deserialize your object and it will be in the same state it was before the serialization. This tutorial talks about XML serialization. The namespace containing classes and methods suitable for such a serialization is System.Xml.Serialization.

Introduction to Open GL in C#

OpenGl is an API similar to direct3D. However, OpenGL (Open Graphics Library) is not supported by Microsoft and is a cross-language, cross-platform API used for writing applications that produce 2d or 3D graphics. Over 300 functions are implemented in this API which can help you draw complex 3D scenes from primitive data such as polygons and triangles. Mesa 3D is an open source library API which is also compatible with the OpenGl protocol. OpenGl aims at two key goals: 1. To present to the programmer a uniform API that hides the complexities of interfacing with different 3D accelerators. 2. To hide the different capabilities of hardware platforms. OpenGL converts primitives into pixels that are depicted on your screen. Primitives can be polygons, triangles or lines. The transformation is accomplished by a graphics pipeline.

While Loops in C#

C# provides several mechanisms for flow control in a program. The loops in C# allow you to execute a block of code repeatedly, until a certain condition is met. This condition can be the number of repetition, a variable taking a specified value or something completely different. The while loop is a pre-test loop and is used to execute a block of code for a number of times not known before the loop begins. The do..while loop is a post-test loop and is used for the same purposes as the while loop.

Working with dates and times in PHP

When developing more complex PHP sites, especially forums, discussion boards and blogs where date and time functions are important, you’ll regularly encounter situations where you need to display and manipulate values based around the current date and time. PHP includes a range of functions which can help you to easily format and adjust your date and time displays to suit your needs. In this tutorial, we’ll look at some easy ways to display calendar information for your visitors.

Binary Serialization in C#

In a previous tutorial we talked about serialization and the various option for formatting its data output. In this document we will talk about binary serialization. Binary serialization is used for communication between .Net applications and is not a human-readable format. Windows relies on serialization for many important tasks such as remoting and copying items to the clipboard.

ARRAYS in C-Sharp

When defining variables you can choose between scalar number and arrays. Arrays in C# are declared by adding a set of square brackets to the end of the variable declaration. All members of an array must be of the same type. You cannot have different types in an array.

Data Encryption in C#

Data is most vulnerable when transferred across a network or stored on a disk drive. An attacker with some knowledge and skills can bypass security software and gain access to sensitive data. However, you can use cryptography to your advantage. You can protect your private data by encrypting their information with a key code, only you will know.

Garbage Collection in C#

A significant advantage of C# when compared to C++ is the memory management capabilities of the C#. The programmer need not worry about memory management; the garbage collector is assigned this operation on the programmer’s behalf. You will probably know that value data types are stored on the stack while reference data types are stored on the managed heap. The stack stores data value types that are not members of objects. Also, in C# it is always the case that if variable a goes into scope before variable b, then b will go out of scope first. For example, if you declare some variables in a method, these variables will go out of scope when the method ends. However, it maybe sometimes that you need to keep these variables long after the method/function ended. This happens for all data declared with the new operator, the reference types. All reference types are stored in the managed heap, which is under the control of garbage collector.
