Is directX written in a standard C++ code or it isn't that simple because and it has direcxt access to the graphics hardware. many stuff you use in directX I wouldn't know how it works eg the complicated interfaces etc.

DirectX is written in C code with some C++ touches here or there (e.g. matrix operators). That is why we see all those pointers and not references in standard functions. Direct3D has access to underlying hardware through HAL. You can check docs for more info.

So... Muira Yoshimoto sliced off his head, walked 8 miles, and defeated a Mongolian horde... by beating them with his head?

Documentation? "We are writing games, we don't have to document anything".
