a tutorial on ‘dynamic’ arrays in C
Feb 01, 2008 in Game Dev, Misc
For the purposes of education and the prospect of writing a new game, I’ve been doing some poking around in C. I’ve certainly learned a few things (and expect to learn more in the future) Prior to this, I’ve only had experience with C++, which some would argue is a completely different beast altogether. However, this post is not intended to discuss the differences between C and C++.
Anyways, I figured I might share a few snippets and wisdom that I’ve picked up along the way, so here’s a quick (?) rundown of how to use structs and pointers to create “dynamic” arrays that will resize as you need them.
