Hello to all developers. As we write this, a new year is approaching and we have introduction-level beginner posts about C programming that may help and motivate you, your friends and family, or your students to make learning to code your new year resolution and start new apps on Windows, Linux, iOS, or on IoT systems in 2023. The topics in this article are a round-up of the latest C topics from the LearnCPlusPlus website including very simple examples that can be compiled by any C compiler. We try to answer all beginner-level questions, please ask in the comments section below if you need any specific topics or detailed posts. Flowcharts are useful diagrams in software development. In C and C++ programming, flow charts are often used to represent algorithms or some parts of programs or main parts of big C or C++ applications. We explain flowcharts, what they are, and how can you use a flowchart when designing and coding your apps, which programs can be used, and what tools can be used with C++ Builder. Table of Contents Why an introduction to C programming in 2023? What’s new in RAD Studio 11.2 with C++ and C programming? How can we start C++ and C programming in 2023? How C++ Builder can be used in C++ and C programming in 2023? Why an introduction to C programming in 2023? Although our main focus is. of course, on the C++ programming language, the fact both C and C++ share an ancestry means understanding how they are similar, and where they differ helps us choose the best way to use them both and know where one is stronger than the other in any given situation. The C Programming Language was developed in the 1970s and since 1970, there have been many programming languages and have been many changes in C language, like C+, C++, CLANG standards C++99, C++11, C++14, C++17 and C++23. In the history of programming, there was B programming language before C. And there was ALGOL language before the B programming language. In other posts mentioned today, we explain how to create, run and exit C programs using the latest C++ IDE on Windows 10 and Windows 11. C is one of the most powerful programming languages and it’s suitable for a wide variety of uses. You can create a C program and compile it with several different C and C++ compilers and IDEs. You can develop C apps with a free C++ Builder IDE. You can also use the same IDE to develop C++ GUI apps quickly and professionally. Note that you can use C functions in your GUI-based C++ apps too. We have many beneficial posts on LearnCPlusPlus.org, where we cover the skills and activities necessary to develop C++ apps. What’s new in RAD Studio 11.2 with C++ and C programming?

C++ Builder makes it easy to build engineering applications with custom data visualization methods. These kinds of applications are necessary to understand data results easily. You can use OpenGL or Direct3D libraries or similar 3rd party engines to create great-looking 3D visualizations which help users to make sense of complex datasets. With C++ Builder you can directly create your own 3D objects in your own C++ app by using TViewport3D. You can also animate them at runtime. In this post we will explain how to visualize 3D nodal data with colored cubes. Table of Contents Why are 3D data visualizations used? How to use Viewport3D for 3D data visualizations? How to use TCube for 3D data visualizations? How to code 3D data visualizations for a 3D grid object with cubes in C++? What does the C++ 3D visualization example look like? Is there a full Example of 3D data visualizations of a 3D Grid object with cubes in C++? Where can I find other C++ examples of 3D data visualizations? Why are 3D data visualizations used? 3D data visualization is important an important tool to help understand complex physical and statistical systems such as thermal distributions, fluid properties, pressure changes, and stress analysis of materials. How to use Viewport3D for 3D data visualizations? Viewport3D (TViewportd3D) component in C++ Builder FireMonkey projects is a great way to display many basic 3D Objects like Plane, Cube, Sphere, Cone, Plane, Ellipse3D etc. Please see this post about Working With 3D In Modern Windows C++ Development for examples on creating these 3D objects. You can also easily load your 3D objects into Viewport3D by using Model3D (TModel3D). To create a 3D object to be used in Viewport3D we need to use TMesh classes.  TMesh is a custom 3D shape that can be customized by drawing 3D shapes.  It is a class which publishes a set of properties from its ancestor, TCustomMesh, in order to let you design new 3D shapes at design time from within the IDE, through the Object Inspector. Use the Data property to specify the points, normals and textures for each point, and the order in which the resulting triangles are drawn. The designed shape is filled with the material specified through the MaterialSource property. If no material is specified, then the shape is filled with a red color. How to use TCube for 3D data visualizations? The TCube is used in the Viewport3D component of C++ Builder. It is a class that implements a 3D cube shape, built on a 3D wireframe, that can be placed with Viewport3D component or with a 3D FireMonkey form. We can use these cubes to visualize the magnitude of our data in XYZ Cartesian coordinates with colors. TCube is a 3D visual object that can be added from the Tool Palette in C++ Builder. To change the color or add texture to the cube, use the MaterialSource property. Set SubdivisionsDepth, SubdivisionsHeight and SubdivisionsWidth to specify how smooth the cube’s surfaces are. In this post we will use these cubes to display our 3D data (i.e. Temperatures in every nodes of a 3D Object). We can also use other 3D objects in C++ Builder. For example you can use TPlane (TPlane) forms in 3D to display surface distributions in a 3D view. For more details about 3D objects in C++ Builder, please read more about Learn To Quickly Create Specific 3D Objects In Modern C++ Applications For Windows How to code 3D data visualizations for […]

Hello to everyone, nowadays during my normal working day I have many students around me with a passion to learn programming. They are from high schools, colleges, from some engineering departments of universities and they are asking which programming language they should learn. I am asking what they want to do by learning a language, and then almost always my answer is C++. C++ is great, you can create simple apps, and simple games in C++ helped along by the features of a great C++ IDE like C++ Builder, Dev-C++, or RAD Studio. The programming industry seems to be developing faster and faster every year and yet the C++ language remains squarely at the center of this evolving development world. There is SO much information on the internet, so I think it’s helpful to guide students to let them learn a powerful language. Whether or not they are just taking their first steps in learning to program or are about to be experienced coding professionals. Generally, they want to learn C++ to control some devices, airplanes, UAVs, IoT systems, some mechatronic applications, and some simple AI applications. Some of them want to develop mobile apps and my answer is to advise them to learn C++. This week, we have another 5 posts focused to teach some first steps along the path of learning to code using C++. These posts help you understand some of the reasons that make C++ such an important programming language. This week, we explain what program you need to develop C++ apps, how can you learn C++ language, why we use C++ language. There is also an example post about how to run a simple C++ program. What’s new in RAD Studio 11.2 with C++? Embarcadero recently announced the release of RAD Studio 11.2 with Delphi 11.2 and C++ Builder 11.2.
