Lesson 16: The while loop. Beginning Programming with Visual Studio C++ 2010

Introducing the while loop

You can ask me questions that i was not clear on and i will answer ASAP. Please provide complements and likes if the vid was good OR constructive criticism if they could be better or just flat out suck. I WILL edit or remake videos if they are horrible in certain areas or if they just flat-out suck and will take your feedback into consideration.

I am interested in game programming and I would like to ask you, if you could tell me, how hard is it to move on from knowing c++ to applying it to something as complicated as game programming? Or that is what I have heard at least, that it is complicated. And, of course, thank you for these great lessons, your videos are by far the best!

If you want an extra exercise, try this one: imagine you have one gigantic sheet of paper. Calculate how many times you have to fold it to reach the moon from the Earth. Known values: thickness of one sheet of paper = 0.1mm (0.004 inch), distance to the moon =  384 403 km (238 857 miles). Use the while statement for this and print the amount of folds. Tip: don't forget to add 1 fold at the end, you have to reach the moon. The answer should be: 43. Good luck.

@1danielinthelionsden I have the source code that you can copy and paste in the link at the top of the description

Yes java is C++ child :D the reason i say child is because they are so similar so basically Java is the next step up from C++

@1danielinthelionsden Does the program run or do you get a build error. Check my blogger page tomorrow night or friday. I should have some code that you can copy and paste as examples
