Welcome to Borland C++Builder 6 Developer's Guide. Our goal for this book was to put forth the most informative and practical reference on C++Builder to date. Building on the success of C++Builder 5 Developer's Guide, we have concentrated on the essential elements and capabilities of C++Builder, including the very latest features provided by C++Builder 6.

Wireless Game Development in C/C++ with BREW

Designed for game programmers interested in developing mobile phone applications, this book uses QUALCOMM’s BREW development environment to illustrate a variety of techniques in the field of wireless phone games.

A Tutorial on Pointers and Arrays in C

One of those things beginners in C find difficult is the concept of pointers. The purpose of this tutorial is to provide an introduction to pointers and their use to these beginners.

C Programming

As a programming language, C is rather like Pascal or Fortran. Values are stored in variables. Programs are structured by defining and calling functions. Program flow is controlled using loops, if statements and function calls. Input and output can be directed to the terminal or to files. Related data can be stored together in arrays or structures.

AVL Trees: Tutorial and C++ Implementation

An AVL tree is a special type of binary tree that is always 'partially' balanced. The criteria that is used to determine the 'level' of 'balanced-ness' is the difference between the heights of subtrees of a root in the tree

Sorting and Searching Algorithms

A small guide on the following topics : Arrays, Linked Lists, Timing Estimates, Insertion sort, Shell sort, Quicksort, Hash Tables, Binary Search Trees, Red-Black Trees, Skip Lists, External Sorts, B-Trees.

Optimizing C++

Imagine that you are about to finish a relatively large program, one that has taken a few weeks or months to write and debug. Just as you are putting the finishing touches on it, you discover that it is either too slow or runs out of memory when you feed it a realistic set of input data. You sigh, and start the task of optimizing it.

The Function Pointer Tutorials

Function Pointers provide some extremely interesting, efficient and elegant programming techniques. You can use them to replace switch/if-statements, to realize your own late-binding or to implement callbacks. Unfortunately - probably due to their complicated syntax - they are treated quite stepmotherly in most computer books and documentations.

C Language

Developed originally at Bell Labs by Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie in the second half of the 1980’s, the C Language has become a high-level programming language responsible for almost all operating systems of today. Together with the object-oriented successor of C, C++, these two languages have become commercial software’s first choice in programming language. UNIX runs on C Language and is becoming commercially acceptable on a mass scale.
