hi, im 15 years old, and trying to learn C, ive read through most of a book about C, but i still need some questions answered...

Im interested in going into the gaming industry, im already avid in Maya (a graphics program) and im wanting to learn programming as well...

My first question is that when text messages are typed out in games, are those using printf and scanf(or in C++ cin cout) and they are just changing fonts and x and y location... or is it something totally different?

also, in making games which programming language is most used C or C++?

also, where can I find good books or tutorials on how to make GUI's in Windows?

thanks for any help..
