COMPUTER BIBLE GAMES WITH VISUAL C# ® EXPRESS is a self-paced semester long self-study "beginning" programming tutorial consisting of 13 chapters explaining (in simple, easy-to-follow terms) how to build a Visual C# Express Windows applications and games. Students learn about project design, the Visual C# Express toolbox, and many elements of the Visual C# language. Numerous examples are used to demonstrate every step in the building process. The tutorial also includes several detailed computer projects for students to build and try. The projects built include a number guessing game, a card game, an allowance calculator, a drawing program, a state capitals game, a video game, and several Computer Bible Games. We have also included the source code to several college prep bonus projects including a loan calculator, portfolio manager, and a checkbook balancer to get you ready for those college courses. For after-school fun we also added several classic Computer Games ported to Visual C# Express.
The Computer Bible Game projects built include, in increasing complexity:
* Noah's Ark - Race the turtles to Noah's Ark before the Great Flood starts
* Elijah and the Ravens - Help Elijah catch the falling bread as he is fed by the ravens
* Daniel and the Lions - Shoot Prayers at the lions to protect Daniel in the Lion's Den
COMPUTER BIBLE GAMES WITH VISUAL C#® EXPRESS is presented using a combination of over 650 pages of color course notes and actual Visual C# Express examples. No prior programming experience is necessary, but familiarity with doing common tasks using Microsoft Windows is expected. The course requires Windows 7 or Windows 8, and Visual C# 2012 Express. The Visual C# source code, and all needed multimedia files are available for download from the publisher's website (BibleByteBooks.com) after book registration.
