General discussions / Re: SFML 2.0 Tutorials?

« on: October 08, 2012, 01:47:05 am »

So any tutorials for SFML 2? I don't know programming in version 1.6.

I just also started with 2.0 and i watch codingmadeeasy's 1.6 tutorials.
Its actually not that hard to follow when using 2.0.
Yes, there are some code u have to change, but its not that hard to follow and if u get some errors, then u can easily find what syntax you have to change.  some good links are here:

General / A little confused in the "Getting started" Tutorial

At the buttom of the page, the little test, i got everything to work.

But im confused about the nested while-loop

it looks like to me that the nested-while-loop is like an if-statement, because it go in and do the thing 1 single time, and then jump out of the loop again. I know it because i tested it with the cout thing inside the first while-loop, and it looped around 24/7.

Why not just make it to an if-statement? That would seem less confusing because then you know for sure it will do the statement 1 single time and jump out.

i actually tried to replace "while" with "if" and it worked perfectly, but why make it to a while-loop and why does it jump out?
