How to add graphics

[omzy]

I wanted to make game where things are falling from the sky and you have to avoid them, but i was wondering if that was possible with c++.
I was wondering how i could add graphics to a console application or any good tutorials for it.
Also how would it work? My psudo code for it would be
if(colusion with rock)
life - 1

but i wouldnt know how to use that in c++ unless theres a colusion. I would think a bool would work but im not sure.
Thanks for the help in advance

Is it possible? http://www.sloperama.com/advice/lesson50.htm
Graphics with console? No.
I would however recommend you to pickup a graphic library (SFML, SDL, Allegro, OpenGL, DirectX etc).

As for how you would do it - That's why you do it, to find out.

Warnis what i mean is for example i alredy have a tic tac toe game, how do i add graphics to that since its console application.
I know you cant have both but "upgrading/evolving" an aplication alredy made for console with graphics.

Unfortunalty, you cant. You have to re-write the whole thing using a graphics library such as any of the ones Warnis listed.

Oh, thats unfortunate. I mean atleast i like coding so i wont get bored, but let me get this straight basicly when u change libraries you are somehow changing syntax drasticly?

[Warnis]

No, you'll just have to learn to make use of the functions available to you, there will be no change in logic or syntax.
