Answer 1

@voria -

"graphics.h" is not a standard header. It is no way part of the C++ standard library.





To answer the question, there is nothing in the standard library designed specifically for graphics programming.



The Win32 API has some graphics functions if you're on a windows machine, but they're very slow, and are in no way suited for games if that's you're intent.



Sorry, buddy, but if you want graphics, you need to use some sort of graphics library like OpenGL or SDL.

Answer 2

For graphics in c++ there is a file name graphic.h header file is situated using you can create your own graphic too...

Answer 3

for example, drawing using gdi

for Borland c++

for ms vc++ just change the syntax



Graphics::TBitmap* gBitmap = new Graphics::TBitmap;

gBitmap->LoadFromFile("1.bmp");

Canvas->Draw(10,10,gBitmap);

Canvas->Brush->Bitmap = gBitmap;

Canvas->Ellipse(85,10,160,85);
