Roundbeargames | [C++ Tutorial #9] While Loops, Input, Game Loop @Roundbeargames | Uploaded October 2020 | Updated October 2024, 8 minutes ago.
In this video we build a very simple game loop using while loops and std::cin etc.
I decided not to clear the console (or get key presses) because I didn't feel like using old libraries. You can if you want to (try googling).
For your homework, try creating your own game loop using everything you've learned so far.
(8:57) This is a simplified example (plus I haven't talked about "small strings yet), so usually you wouldn't let users allocate giant heap memory so easily. We'll get deeper into strings later on.

Code itself is simple. Thinking in binaries might not be. Fundamental concepts will be the foundation later when youre trying to understand why certain code gives you certain results.
In case with the speed of light (11:21), its meters per second. I forgot to mention the unit.

This is just to give you an idea what you can do with everything you learned in video #0 ~ 11. Lemme know if building a game loop is too hard (I can make additional videos with some sample code). First give it a try and see if you can come up with something on your own.

Since we have the standard library, or std::cin, getting user input is fairly straight forward (other than the memory corruption you have to worry about).
And ofc theres other ways to get input. This is just one simplified example.
