Graphics in Turbo C++

Hello friends

Today I will show you how you can create simple graphics in Turbo C++ like basic shapes . 

I have also uploaded the “Program Code” so that all of you can copy it on your system

So in order to do so first we have to install a small free piece of program called Dos Box which could be downloaded from the following website

http://www.dosbox.com/

After downloading it we do the the following steps

Step 1 > Downloaded the software install it in your computer . I would assume that you have installed the software in “C DRIVE”

Step 2 >  Create a folder in your C drive “let name it as turbo”

Step 3> Now install Turbo C++ software inside the “turbo” folder or if you have already installed it in your C drive then you should have a folder called “TC” .In that case just copy the  TC folder and paste it inside “turbo” folder

Step 5>Now copy the EGAVGA.BGI file inside the BGI folder inside TC and paste it inside BIN folder

Location of  EGAVGA.BGI will be “C:\turbo\TC\BGI”

Step 6>After doing all these we now start the Dos Box Program by double clicking the icon . The initial screen will look something like this

the screen with the blue box will be our working screen

Step 7> now type the following in the window

  mount c c:\turbo

and press enter , after that we will get this message

 Step 8> now type 

c: 

and press enter

Step 9>Now we can type Dos commands and navigate to the TC.EXE file inside TC folder like this 

cd TC   press enter    

cd BIN  press enter 

TC.EXE  And press enter to start Turbo C++ IDE , so all of it look like this

  if you get the blue IDE screen then it all ready to start programming

now we can use the following code to start programming

}
output of the program will be like this

 output of the program will be like this

rectangle(250,250,450,400);
getch(); 
}
output of the program will be like this

ellipse(250,250,0,360,100,60);

getch();

}

out put of the program will be like this 

Ok these were some basic shapes now let us draw some objects , please forgave me I am not good at graphics my main aim is to give you some idea to get going . If you want more accurate presentation feel free to modify the code to get your best result

//Diagram of a car

#include<stdio.h>

#include<graphics.h>

void main()

{

int gd=DETECT,gm;

initgraph(&gd,&gm,"");

rectangle(100,200,200,250);

rectangle(220,200,320,250);

rectangle(90,190,330,290);

circle(150,290,30);

circle(270,290,30);

getch(); 
}
the output will be like this

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

 //Diagram of a fish

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

#include<stdio.h>

void main()

{

ellipse(150,200,0,360,100,50);

circle(200,195,20);

ellipse(50,200,0,360,50,30);

getch(); 
}

the output will be like this

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

 //Diagram of a kite

#include<stdio.h>

void main()

{

int gd=DETECT,gm;

initgraph(&gd,&gm,"");

line(220,140,300,140);

line(270,100,270,180);

line(220,140,270,100);

line(220,140,270,180);

line(270,100,300,140);

line(270,180,300,140);

getch();

}
the output will be like this

So these were some diagrams I made now let us use the same diagrams and do some simple animation on them like moving them on screen

#include<stdio.h>

void main()

{

int gd=DETECT,gm,i;

initgraph(&gd,&gm,"");

 do{

     for(i=0;i<=500;i++)

     {

       delay(8);

             cleardevice();

rectangle(100+i,200,200+i,250);

rectangle(220+i,200,320+i,250);

rectangle(90+i,190,330+i,290);

circle(150+i,290,30);

circle(270+i,290,30);

      }

   }while(!kbhit());

getch();

}

{

   {

     delay(8);

     cleardevice();

ellipse(150+i,200,0,360,100,50);

circle(200+i,195,20);

ellipse(50+i,200,0,360,50,30);

   }

  }while(!kbhit());

getch();

}

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

{

int gd=DETECT,gm,i;

    {

     delay(8);

     cleardevice();

line(220+i,140,300+i,140);

line(270+i,100,270+i,180);

line(220+i,140,270+i,100);

line(220+i,140,270+i,180);

line(270+i,180,300+i,140);

     }

 

       }while(!kbhit());

getch();

}

Ok so we have come to our end but before that lets do a final program to draw the Indian flag and also color it

 ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//Indian Flag

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

#include<stdio.h>

#include<graphics.h>

void main()

{

int gd=DETECT,gm;

initgraph(&gd,&gm,"");

setfillstyle(LINE_FILL,BLUE);

bar(0,0,800,800);

printf("JAY HIND");

setfillstyle(SOLID_FILL,BROWN);

bar(100,100,300,150);

setfillstyle(SOLID_FILL,WHITE);

bar(100,150,300,200);

setcolor(BLUE);

circle(200,175,25);

line(200,175,200,200);

line(200,175,200,150);

line(200,175,225,175);

line(200,174,174,174);

setfillstyle(SOLID_FILL,GREEN);

bar(100,200,300,250);

setfillstyle(SOLID_FILL,RED);

bar(98,98,100,700);

getch();

 }

the output will be like this
