Functions are a must for modern object oriented programming and for visual programs as well. When you click a button on your mouse an event is generated. This event fires a function that is linked to that particular event. Therefore, you need to define several functions that correspond to various actions your code should perform. They are also useful when you need to call a block of code many times in different parts of your program.

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.

The break statement has two uses. You can use it to terminate a case in the switch statement.

Reference types provide excellent flexibility and performance of large structures. This is the reason that classes are reference types and structs are data value types. As you will probably know, reference types do not store the actual value of the object but a pointer to a memory location. This pointer is stored on the stack whereas the object itself is located in the managed heap.
