Title: CodingMadeEasy Tutorials
Post by: Dante12129 on May 30, 2013, 04:20:59 am
I noticed that the link for CodingMadeEasy's SFML tutorials link to his 1.6 tutorials; I think this should be changed to his 2.0 tutorials.

The wiki can be edited by anyone (that's its whole purpose), so don't hesitate to change it yourself :)

And the code has much bigger problems than typos, one of which is memory leaks (and less important: questionable exception types, non-local variable, useless initialization with NULL).

Not sure why you start with an "and", but yes I highly suggest to NOT use CodingMadeEasy to "learn" C++ nor SFML. The code often holds errors, has questionable code design or is logically wrong.
Not to mention his very personal explanations of C++ topics, which again are often far from the "truth".

In general one can say: Don't teach topics you barely know more than your pupils.

This is possible spam. The quote is an identical copy of an older post of mine (http://en.sfml-dev.org/forums/index.php?topic=13492.msg94401#msg94401), and it's the user's first post.

If it's not, then write your own opinion. If you refer to other people's post, mark them with quotes.
