Chapter 4 Update

I have now completely finished reading through chapter four and therefore the entire tutorial. Of course it doesn't mean it was the last time i looked at it - on the contrary. It is going to remain the main source of my project. The goal of reading through it was not to learn everything right away - that would be almost impossible. Instead, it was more like a look around, an indexing of the possibilities I have. This way I can plan on how I will make the game, design it and when I'll be actually writing it, I will be heavily relaying on the templates, tables, examples and the exact definitions that I've met throughout the tutorial.

I have also completed one of the practice problems - since it was a long and final chapter, there's quite a few of them and they're more advanced. I may choose to skip some of them, if they are not directly relevant to my game.

The problem I have finished now was a modification of a given code. I was given a program that allowed one to draw lines with the mouse and I added to it color and line type change. I had the basic program ready, so I could concentrate on the new material covered only in this chapter. It took me quite a while to finish this program, but most of it was a one time research that I would have done sooner or later because I will be needing it for my game.
