Thread: Making a new game, graphic.

Code:

main()
{
	char map[10][10], mapcolor[10][10];
	int j, end;
	HANDLE h;
	h = GetStdHandle ( STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE );

	for(int i=0;i<10;i++)
	{
		for(j=0;j<10;j++)
		{
		map[i][j] = (char)178;
		}
	}
	for(i=0;i<4;i++)
	{
		for(j=0;j<4;j++)
		{
			mapcolor[i][j] = 1;
		}
	}
	for(i=4;i<7;i++)
	{
		for(j=4;j<7;j++)
		{
			mapcolor[i][j] = 3;
		}
	}
	for(i=0;i<10;i++)
	{
		for(j=0;j<10;j++)
		{
			switch(mapcolor[i][j])
			{
			case 1:
				SetConsoleTextAttribute (h, FOREGROUND_BLUE);
				cout<<map[i][j];
				break;
			case 3:
				SetConsoleTextAttribute (h, FOREGROUND_GREEN);
				cout<<map[i][j];
				break;
			default:
				SetConsoleTextAttribute (h, FOREGROUND_RED);
				cout<<map[i][j];
				break;
			}
		}
	cout<<"\n";
	}
	cin>>end;
	return 0;
}
