Hello, im pretty new to c++ programming and need some help. Here are some questions i have. Im trying to make some simple openGl programs. All of this code i got from NeHe's tutorial's.
When there is something like this
AUX_RGBImageRec *LoadBMP(char *Filename)
What do the * mean?
Also, What exactly is this declaring, like bool, int or something like that
HDC hDC=NULL;
HGLRC hRC=NULL;
HWND hWnd=NULL;
HINSTANCE hInstance;
1 more thing, What does the 256 mean? This is used for recieving keys for input.
bool keys[256];
Thx for the help
