Graphics

[JamesU]

Is there a way to create graphics in C++. or in some other language, and I can use the grphic file in the C++ source code?

[JamesU]

also, how could I put a code with another language in the middle of a C++ document?

If you're using Windows, you could use the GDI through the Windows API or through the MFC classes, or you could use DirectX or OpenGL for 3D high-speed graphics. You could also use any number of available libraries, SDL for example. In Linux, you're gonna have to go through the X libraries (not recommended). Probably you should use some toolkit, like the Qt libraries. For 3d graphics, you can use OpenGL, or OpenGL + SDL (thats what I use).
Also, I don't get what you mean by embedded another language into a C++ document. If you mean whether you can embed code from another language into a C++ source file, then no, unless you translate it to C++, because the compiler only compiles C/C++ and not any other language. However, most compilers do support some form of embedded assembly language. The MSVC compiler uses the "__asm" keyword I believe. In gcc/g++ it would be asm("...")

you can embed matlab too apparently.

cefarix, your going a little overboard.

If you simply want to create and edit images then use this:

Ah, sorry. I missed the part where he said "or any other language." I thought he wanted to do it via C++ only ...

[dduardo]

You mean she. Also GD is written in C so it works with C++.

Why not do some really enjoyable stuff with graphics and play some games?
Try allegro

Its enjoyable and easy to play around with (well atleast i found it easy to play around it, so i may be generalising a bit too much here). There are lots of demos to help you around.
