Print Page - An old, lost tutorial

Searching though my old drives (which I do every so often, looking for something or other, before I get distracted by "What was this??"), I stumbled across this old tutorial which I was working up for folks to help introduce them to various things in QB64.

Someday soon(tm), now that I've remembered this, I really should get back to it once more, as it's now to the point where it starts addressing actual memory commands and various color modes for our programs. As it is, it's still a rather long and informative tutorial about various things, which I thought I'd share and see if anybody was interested in adding anything to it, or just felt like offering their thoughts and feedback on the information/format contained within it.

Usage is rather simple: Download, extract to the QB64 folder (or to its own subfolder for ease of clean up, if you have the "Save EXE with BAS file" option turned on in QB64), and then compile and run it. Then tell me what you think of it; good or bad. ;D

Of course very good!

Because I run with Linux, I had a minor font location issue but other than that, the program ran just fine. I have to go out and will check it out fully when I get back... ;
)

I recall seeing the lesson on Hex somewhere / when before. Hard to tell how helpful it is to someone new to counting in other bases, good intro and the more exposure the better for something like that.

I look forward to checking out the lessons on memory from a master.

And while the one above is a general Hex/Memory type tutorial, here's another old one I found, which helps explain a bit about SIN and COS in programming:

The took some of the mystique out of _MEM for me. Thanks.

The screen scrolling up/down is very nice !

Picture best helped me to understand the functions of SIN and COS. I don't know exactly how to write it in English. It's a definition of a unit circle (or one - circle? Or binary - circle definition?), Basically I just had the picture, where it is all explained and after a bit of thinking then came up quite quickly my 3D kitchen, which is here on the forum. https://matematika.cz/jednotkova-kruznice - slide down to the second picture from above. There you can see what radian is, as defined by SIN and COS. It is important to know that the radius of this circle is 1. When you pull the JK! function from my program you will see exactly how I created motion in 3D space. When you return to the first image, you will see a space divided into 4 quadrants. This is how you calculate the spatial angle (vector), calculate the distance by the pythagorean theorem - and you can move in 3D space. My JK! function calculates this angle.

I am copyed it here. Move mouse to circle circuit.

Hey Steve I remember this your tutorial...
it starts and goes until the direct reading of color in memory mapping them ! Plenty of tips!

I remember also the Easter Egg in the number convertor among Hexadecimal, Binary and Decimal...
if you type &Onumber it convert an octal to decimal!
Thanks to share
