Lesson 15: Matrixes and 2D Arrays - C++ tutorial

Category: C++ tutorials > Basics - Difficulty:

Sequential lists are collection of objects that can be entered or extracted in a sequential way. They don’t provide access to objects in the middle on the list. You can only access a specific object each time you extract it. The two classes named “Queue” and ”Stack” which belong to the “System.Collections” namespace provide you with this kind of functionality, each of them in a slightly different way. The Queue class offers you access to the first object on the list, whereas the Stack class offers you access to the last object on the list. By first and last we mean the first and last object that entered the list. So, the Queue class is a First-in, First-out collection(FIFO Collection) whereas the Stack class is a Last-in, First-out(LIFO Collection). In this tutorial you will create and use both classes to see how they behave when entering and extracting data. You will usually work with such collections with temporary and disposable data. For a more permanent use, arrays provide much better functionality.

It is possible to define more than one constructor function in a class. This is known as constructor overloading.

C++ includes two operators not generally found in other programming languages.

In this tutorial we will present the basic steps for drawing graphics. Something that most programmings find interesting with C# for the beginning of anything related to graphics programming such as Game Development.

Many applications need to communicate with other applications to exchange data or store data in the hard disk. The .Net framework has made these tasks quite simple by including the serialization technique, which can convert objects into binary, SOAP(Simple Object Access Protocol ) or XML documents in order to provide a convenient way for storing and transferring information. Besides the three mentioned format types you can also implement custom serialization to take complete control of the serialization output.
