Once again, let the coding begin! – Game Programming I

Hello!
The game programming course has begun, but first:
So, last week we finished the course ‘Spelanalys och speldesign – introduktion, 7,5hp’, which roughly translates to ‘Introduction to game design and game analysis’. I have hardly written anything related to what I’ve learned or done in the course, so I’ll quickly run through it.
As mention in a previous post, I’ve learned about the MDA framework, which is a tool used to analyze games. We did a workshops where we created a […]

Programming!

This marks the end of my fist week with programming.  Previous to this week I’ve programmed a bit in my spare time, but that was some years ago, and two years ago I took a class in Web development. This helped me get through this week without much problems, even though it took some time to get back into it, especially since I programmed in Visual basic then as opposed to C++ now.
This week we had introduction to programming, and […]

Första veckan med programmering

Nu under första veckan av föreläsningar har vi gått igenom det basiska för programmeringen. Detta inkluderade en kort del med datorers historia. Sedan på onsdagen hade vi ett mattetest för att se alla i klassens matematiska egenskaper. Programmering innehåller en del matte så det är bra att se vilka som kanske behöver lite mer hjälp.
Sedan spenderades lite tid med att lösa uppgifter.  Två av uppgifterna var att göra ett program som räknade om Fahrenheit till Celsius. Så jag kombinerade uppgifterna […]

Finally started programming!

Hi there!
I just finished my two first courses last week and this week the first programming course started. Just this first week has been fun! Most of what we have went through this first week I already knew, but some thing are new.
The first day, on monday, the teacher shortly introduced himself and told us about what he has done and how he got to be a teacher in programming and game design. Afterwards, everyone in the class shortly introduced […]

Game Programming III – the first week, linked lists part one (1)

 

Hello!
A new course in game programming has started and its first week is coming to an end. In this course we’ve been given an assignment divided into three (3) parts. I decided to start working on the first part this week. The first part requires me to create two elementary data structures, a custom linked list and a binary search tree. These must be created from scratch using my own C++ code. These structures must also be generic, meaning […]

First week of C++

Hi all,
It’s Friday and it is time for a weekly update.
As said in the post before this, this week the Game Programming course started. My first week has been more or less an introduction. We have gone through a lot of basic c++.
For example we have been through:

Input/Output: Since we only work in the console so for this is really easy, in my opinion. This just demand a couple of lines of code. The easiest and, probably, the most famous kind […]

The first week of GameProgramming!

So the first week of gameprogramming has gone by. Since i have studied a bit of programming in C# before i have not learned all the much from the courses. Thought it has been a great reminder on how programming works, and to adapt the previous knowledge of C# to C++. The most fundamental thing i have learned this week is that there are several ways to code the same thing, and it ts hard to differentiate which is the […]

Start of Game Programming I at Campus Gotland

I have studied a few programming courses through the years. I started out learning the basics of C++ during my upper secondary school years, around 2009-2010. Later on I studied an introductory course on C++ and also in Java when I first began studying at a university. I have also studied a couple of distance courses which included learning C++, C#, Java and some other scripting language.
