| Lots of simple graphics work, the major project has to be written in VisualBasic (it was VB6, but now it may be VB.NET). | Amazingly, Datta has agreed to allow the use of any language that provides equivalent OpenGL bindings to the C API. Memory management? Pfah! |

| Taught by MarionCottingham, who also wrote the textbook. Do not buy the textbook. | People who have previously done the unit will discourage you from taking the unit based on its Visual Basic past; they can be safely ignored. |
