-familiarity in c++ language
-ms c++ 2008 express and smfl lib.

now im reading through tutorials and what i'm always seeing is the code. i would like to see them actually working, with graphics and all, what do i have to do or download to make them "work" (with simple graphics, just to see them)? just want to know the parts/tools needed..

If you have the code and you have Visual C++ Express then you just need to build and run them. If you don't know how to do that then go to the C++ Express website and work through some of the tutorials.

Then you need to get hold of some books, find online tutorials and be prepared to study hard.
