Neural Network Tutorial
The following
is the source code in C++ for a basic neural network. It isn't weighted down by jargon, mathematical descriptions, or
theory: it shows simply and directly how to program a neural network, period. basic.zip contains the
source code without commenting while basicCommented.zip
is the same code but extensively commented.
I've programmed far more complicated neural network systems that have
been tested in real-world applications.
So, I've made the setup you'll find in basic.zip is a good foundation
for adding complexity later on. In
other words, it is a little over-engineered for what it currently does but
that'll pay off later. Over time I'll
add to the source code here to teach more about neural networks.
