Out of curiosity, why? Perspective projection is based off of an old insight from hundreds of years ago: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinhole_camera Projective geometry and the pe…

Concise and good explanation. :) So the syscalls of a Linux/Unix machine are the same, b/c of the POSIX API. The POSIX API is a standard for *nix OSes. Now, we have compilers such …

Okay, let me give another try for this: So then we have 2 APIs. That is, we have the C standard library (as an API) and the POSIX API. The POSIX API defines the syscalls such as wr…

This would be my (possibly wrong) explanation: So in Linux we have syscalls such as write, read, close, socket, ... These syscalls are defined according to the POSIX standard. POSI…

Yep. Use some of the -W* flags (-Wall -Wpedantic -Wconversion, ...) and specify the standard -std=c90. Avoid undefined behaviors: - https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/language/behavio…

Cing through this, I can tell you that you can C C++: https://godbolt.org/z/sWETvsoKd (a demo for polymorphism in C90) Not only can you do OOP in C, you can also do FP, implement y…
