Code

Any code I make public will be available from my github page. In most cases shared code will be written in C++ and more often than not will be in some way computer graphics related. Unfortunately, the amount of support and help I can offer will be extremely limited. Code projects will normally be accompanied by a Visual Studio solution for easy building. Also, I strive to make libraries small and header-only whenever possible to avoid linkage problems. Please let me know if you find the code useful!

Recommended Reading

C++

My preferred programming language is C++. Because of the enormous popularity of this language it can be difficult to choose between the vast amount of available literature. Here is a list of books (in no particular order) that I have found to be very instructive and useful:

• Modern C++ Design, A. Alexandrescu, Addison-Wesley, 2001.
• C++ Coding Standards, H. Sutter & A. Alexandrescu, Addison-Wesley, 2004.
• Accelerated C++, A. Koenig & B.E. Moo, Addison-Wesley, 2000.
• Exceptional C++, H. Sutter, Addison-Wesley, 1999.
• More Exceptional C++, H. Sutter, Addison-Wesley, 2001.
• Effective C++, S. Meyers, Addison-Wesley, 2005.
• More Effective C++, S. Meyers, Addison-Wesley, 1996.

Computer Graphics

There is also a large body of books published on the topic of computer graphics. Again, I will list some references that I have found to be particularly useful:

• OpenGL Programming Guide, D. Shreiner et al., Addison-Wesley, 2004.
• OpenGL Shading Language, R. Rost, Addison-Wesley, 2004.

• Physically Based Rendering, M. Pharr & G. Humphreys, Elsevier Inc., 2004.
• GPU Gems 2, Editor: M. Pharr, Addison-Wesley, 2005.
• Real-Time Rendering, T. Akenine-Möller et al., A K Peter Ltd., 2002.
• Digital Image Processing, R. Gonzalez et al., Prentice Hall, 2003.
• Level Set Methods and Dynamic Implicit Surfaces, S. Osher & R. Fedkiw, Springer, 2002.
• Data Visualization, A. Telea, A K Peter Ltd., 2008.
