Description

Each chapter includes a project designed around simple games as a fun approach to learning programming. This book will use ANSI C standards and the free gcc compiler as its development platforms. Using these platforms allows the reader to access free software for most operating systems (Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000), Linux and othe UNIX-based OS's. Most competitors assume readers have access to varioius developmental environments. This book uses the free CYGWIN software which will allow readers from any background (UNIX or Microsoft) to easily read, study, and implement chapter contents. Unlike most of the competitors, the author will not deviate from the original target audience by including even minor discussion of advance programming topics, which lose many beginners and fail to satisfy intermediate to advanced programmers.

Features

	Fun approach to a difficult topic - readersa will create games using C as they learn fundamentals of the language
	A gentle, non-intimidating introduction to programming which offers a solid foundation in basic principles to those with no programming experience
	The author will teach the reader how to download, install and use the free development environment
	Each chapter will contain many small, but workable programs (including many screen shots) to demonstrate each topic. The CD will include CYGWIN and games that the reader can cut and paste right into their own Web sites
