My Capstone project for the Udacity C++ Nanodegree Program is an extension of the Snake game (https://github.com/udacity/CppND-Capstone-Hello-World.git).

The following features have been added:

• statistics of player games:
  • a statistic is made up of a pair date-score;
  • statistics are saved in a txt file and showed in the console at the end of a game;
  • statistics are sorted by score;
  • the player can choose to save or not the result of the game
• obstacle objects:
  • an obstacle is added in the game in a random position in a similar way a food object is already inserted;
  • if the snake collides with an obstacle, snake's size and player's score are decremented;
  • if the snake size is equal to one and it collides with an obstacle, nothing happens

• cmake >= 3.7
  • All OSes: click here for installation instructions
• make >= 4.1 (Linux, Mac), 3.81 (Windows)
  • Linux: make is installed by default on most Linux distros
  • Mac: install Xcode command line tools to get make
  • Windows: Click here for installation instructions
• SDL2 >= 2.0
  • All installation instructions can be found here

  Note that for Linux, an apt or apt-get installation is preferred to building from source.

• gcc/g++ >= 5.4
  • Linux: gcc / g++ is installed by default on most Linux distros
  • Mac: same deal as make - install Xcode command line tools
  • Windows: recommend using MinGW

1. Clone this repo.
2. Make a build directory in the top level directory: mkdir build && cd build
3. Compile: cmake .. && make
4. Run it: ./SnakeGame.

• Loops, Functions, I/O
  • The project demonstrates an understanding of C++ functions and control structures:
    • all the code uses different functions and control structures
  • The project reads data from a file and process the data, or the program writes data to a file:
    • the Game constructor and the Game::update_statistics() method read and write on a txt file
  • The project accepts user input and processes the input:
    • in the main.cpp there is a interaction with the end user
• Object Oriented Programming
  • The project uses Object Oriented Programming techniques:
    • all the code is made up of classes, with their declaration in the .h files and their implementation in the .cpp files
  • Classes use appropriate access specifiers for class members:
    • there are public and private members for each classes. Set and Get methods are use to access private attributes
  • Classes encapsulate behavior
