6. What is a “Real Time Strategy” game, and how does it differ from other genres, especially “Turn Based Strategy” games, and non-strategy games. Name some examples and post pictures of games in the different categories.
Question from last weeks video: What is the measure of a megabyte? A: Loosely equal to 1,000,000 bytes in computing.

Return value and parameter

Difference between a parameter and a return value, how are they alike.?

Functions and parameters

Parameters are the numbers and changes you make to a variable inside the parenthesis after the variable. For example; int main("here").
The function is the action and thing happeneing that was created. When you make a char variable and then name that char, that is the function. The function holds input information.

When you can make a material cheaply and easier. 3-D printers make that a logical and possible activity. If we continue the use of the printers we may actually be using less resources and the planet could be healthier.?

PuTTY is it's own operating system that holds libraries of games when you type in certain IPs. The games are all text based. PuTTY IPs are held on computers in a basement somewhere. Or in UNIX's case and actual building.

While loops are used to run and continue running a game until the character dies or the game is over. If you do no use a while loop  the game will not run continuously. I would assume they're used in every single game created.

Zork is a text based game. It's is basically a role play game and pretty much a puzzle/mystery game. I enjoy the idea of using your imagination.

I was raised to play video games, board games, and card games. My family always played video games, before, after, and during dinner, or lunch, sometimes before school. I always played so competitively against my brothers and parents. That competitive part of me has carried on to play people globally. Finally, I enjoy the company of gamers, they are often, very smart, funny, and just plain old awesome.

for(int poop=100;                             poop>=0;                                  poop=poop--)
This is the starting point                  this is the ending point              this is what you count by, the 
100 is the number you start at          0 is the number you finish at    negatives represent that you are                                                                                                                counting down, addition signs                                                                                                                    would represent that you are                                                                                                                      counting up

I believe you're doing a well job and there is no reason for you to change how you teach. I'm only slightly lost when you give us new math operations in C++.

If, if else, and switch

If else statements and switch statements overall can lead to the same conclusion in a program. They can both be used to accomplish the same objective. However, in an if else statement you need the curly brackets to add more than one variable in the else if part.

I believe that it is inevitable; we will keep creating and advancing. Jobs will be taken over, and if time allows it, we will have no jobs, Eventually, presuming the Jesus will not return and take back his kingdom, we will be like WALL-E. Fat, in floating chairs, and the computers will do it all. We create what we create to make our lives easier. If we fully create the ultimate easy and lazy environment, it's possible that a good percentage of the population will no longer work, walk, and even possible eat. We may take a pill that makes us never starve again. The extent to technology, is none. This is hypothetical of course, there will always be the group of people who enjoy work, exercise, and playing. Children are hyper, they run around everywhere. However I believe God will destroy all human creation and take back his kingdom before we fully have no jobs or close to no jobs. Possibly way before time comes to that much advancement.

The order of operations is called PEMDAS. It's an acronym that follows the order of which you solve an equation. First you solve what is in parenthesis, next exponents, multiplication, division, addition, and finally solve for subtraction.

 Visual studio shows you the errors/bugs you've made in multiple places. In the bottom of the screen, after attempting to run the program, it will identify what is missing. Another way to identify 
your errors is noticing the red squiggly line
 under your mistake. To the left will also be a small line 
indicating what line your mistake is in by turning yellow.

I think no man's sky should have made the list. No Man's Sky is a game based on travel through space, to distant planets, and traveling to the main game goal. The center of the universe. The graphics in the trailer are way better than in game. However, that changes little to nothing. The graphics are still very moving and pretty to me. I find the lines, shape, and color choices more extraordinary than any other games I have personally played.

Compiling changes your code into binary, that way the computer can understand what we speak through numbers.

Monday, September 12, 2016

Bool is true/false, int holds numbers (no decimals), char holds character, and double holds decimals or really big numbers.

Image result for surrealism artI enjoy this picture, because I believe it has a meaning behind it. The meaning behind this picture from my perspective shows how civilization is destroying nature. As we continue to grow, we are taking away the life that is nature. A water fall runs down her face, almost as if she is crying, innocent from the destruction.

I don't personally see Mario Bros to be a surreal art. The display may be similar, but it doesn't stretch my mind. There is no challenge to my brain, other than actual level challenges.

Compile vs Run time errors

Compile-time error is when the code itself will not run. Run time Error is when something happens in game like a glitch for example, "Link gets stuck in a tree."

Counting to Ten

0 1 10 11 100 101 110 111 1000 1001 1010

Zero and one are their own numbers, then 10, 11, 100, 101, 110 follow their own pattern.

Game creation tool would be the actual tool used to create the game. A game engine is the actual game application used to play the game. A library holds the shortcuts to the game engines. Allegro is game creation, the actual worm.is is and engine, and steam would be a library.

A game can be anything that has code and a goal. Having a goal is really what defines a game.
Coding "Hello World"
1) Open visula studio 2010
2) New Project
     Empty project
     Name it "Hello World"
3) Right click on source files
     choose C++ file
     Name it "main"

4) Code!
          #include<iostream>
          using namespace std;
       
           int main(){

                    ciut<<"hello world!"<<endl;

           }

Press ctrl +f5

Right click name of program
     properties
     linker
     system
     subsystem
     console

1 try it

The game would end after an increase of difficulty throughout the stages. A quick, trying to get a high score, game. Jumping from platforms, going under and little puzzles along the way. The main character follows a story explaining how he's trapped. Lost in another reality. Trying to explore and leave this strange world. He is in a coma, the only way to leave is to win.

Worm.is game play consists of collecting"food". The bigger the "food", the bigger you grow. The game is almost like a modern day snake. It is PVP and the main strategy would be to cut people off and have them run into in order to decrease their size and increase yours. I enjoy the game, I like all the features and I believe it should be more popular with the amount of fun you can have competitively.
