[gameprogrammer] Re: drwing shapes

For the basics of any drawing app, you're going to want a graphics library. I recommend looking at OpenGL[1] (especially if you want 3D balls, though it can make nice 2D just as well. It has a rather steep learning curve, however), Allegro[2], and SDL[3]. Allegro is designed specifically for games, and SDL is used mostly for games but designed to be a bit more (note, only a little bit) generic.
Give some of those a look-over and try some tutorials[4-8]. That should keep you busy for a day or so. ^_^

I want make a ball rolling form left to right. For that i draw the ball, erase all and draw the ball again in a new position. But I only know to do that in BASIC. How I do it with Delphi or C++???
