Gearing Up: C++ for Game Development
Game algorithms are essential for creating high-performance, adaptive, and engaging games. While many algorithm books focus on theory and concepts using pseudo-code, they often lack practical examples relevant to game development. This book bridges this gap by offering real-world game development examples that not only explain algorithms but also demonstrate how to apply them effectively. This approach enables you to grasp both the theory and practical implementation of algorithms within the context of game development, fostering a deeper understanding and facilitating their application in creating compelling games.
This chapter serves as the introduction to the book, outlining its purpose, organizational structure, and the tools used to illustrate algorithms in practical game development scenarios. Key topics covered in this chapter include:
- Why learn algorithms for game development?
- Why is C++ used in this book?
- Understanding...
