Learning C, Day 6 (Point Cube)

Finally some 3D today! But first, Vim. I spent about half an hour just messing around in Vim and after that I used it for the rest of the day. Vim is so cool. It has shortcuts and commands for everything. A few times I found myself guessing commands correctly. For example, “$” means “move to the end of the line” and “d” is delete, so “d$” deletes to the end of the line. This tutorial has been really helpful. I just yoinked their recommended configuration, but instead of “jk” as escape, I’m using “kj”. Sometimes I like to asdfghjkl; and I can’t do that with “jk” as escape. I also remapped caps lock as backspace. Seems like a smart move: I use backspace all the time, but can’t remember the last time I intentionally used caps lock. Although, I keep forgetting that I remapped it. It’s like caps lock as a key doesn’t exist in my brain.

Anyway, I spent about three hours on the course and I learned some basic perspective projection and vector manipulation. Here’s the result:

I’ll see you tomorrow!
