Hi guys,

I want to start a basic particle system in c++ using openGL. I wrote an algorithm for that but I don't understand how to start it.

The problem I am facing is I can print the positions and velocity updates but I don't know how to show it visually using openGL.

Any examples to start...

I hope you understand...

Thanks in advance..
Kalyan

Are you completely new to OpenGL? I would advise to learn "modern" OpenGL programming and most tutorials only teach the old ways. A good reason for learning modern GL is that WebGL and Mobile devices don't support the old way.
This is a great resource: http://arcsynthesis.org/gltut/
