It would be really great if this got added as a sub-forum. I know it can be related to services etc.
But, this just seems like a great way to break it up from the other things located in other sections, however I don't have anything to add at this moment as i'm mainly a python programmer, and learning java now.

Hmm, does anyone know of any good examples or tutorials for Codeblocks that show you how to code interaction with the shapes you make?
I may have just found what I needed
just needed to look for a bit longer.

I dunno about that, I don't think I want to use anything particularly pre-made I think the only thing I've done that's pre-made so far is use the Codeblocks OpenGL sample to get all the window setup that I need because the tutorials I've looked at are outdated with some of the stuff they have. I did notice some VK commands for all the keyboard stuff in the compiler so I'll have to have a look at the syntax involved with that so I can make stuff move.
Edit: AHA! Nehe seems to be very good with this stuff and it's just what I need, IF commands ftw!

Have to admit, I think I'm starting to really enjoy messing around in OpenGL I just need to figure out how to make it interactive.
I just need to figure out how to make it interactive.I did some coding in OpenGL, it is pretty fun. I had to open up some of my old math books from college that I figured I would never need again.
For interaction, you should first start with using a key listener. Making stuff happen based upon various keyboard keys is fairly easy.
Just remember it's not the language that matters (okay, maybe it matters a little), it's the practices and techniques you learn from using that language. If you master the correct techniques, you'll pick up future languages faster, and produce better code and documentation.

i can do the job 2 of 3 ways;
Cheap, Fast, Good
if you want it:
Cheap & Fast, fine, but it won't be very good.. (Dirty Code! lol )
Good & Cheap, ok, ill do my best!
Good & Fast, sure, but thats not going to be cheap. 50,000BTC

I would recommend reading Scott Meyers and Herb Sutter and keeping your focus on Standard C++ always (i.e. not extensions for specific compilers such as MSVC).

I am interested in learning C++ mainly because that seems to be the most widely used language out there. I am already familiar with HTML because I've learned it some in school and have used it in creating my websites, and next year, I will be learning some Java as part of a course and will probably continue to mastery the following year. However, C++ I will need to learn by myself, so do you guys have any recommendations for me learning it by myself. My parents may help me as they both know C++ and multiple other coding languages.
I support a coding (sub-)FORUM
Purely from a C++ coding style perspective I see no reason to be "indenting" the function calls you have (indenting is normally done for code *blocks* that are surrounded by braces or for conditional expressions).
You might consider using an "empty code block" to make it more express the indenting you are after though:

Code:

glPopMatrix();
{
glBegin(GL_TRIANGLES);
...
glEnd();
}
Nothing to add atm, but I support this idea for a thread.
Considering there are clearly tons of programmers/learning programmers here I think we should make a thread where we can talk about different programming languages and help each other out, I'm currently messing around in OpenGL though I suspect if I want to make anything functional like a game I'm going to have to properly get into C++ too, feel free to post code here of stuff you're working on and need help with etc.
