jumping function

[kstv_chttrj]

Hello I am quite new in gaming.
Can any one tell me how to successfully make a jumping game. I do not need the entire code n all. But could not find the logic behind it.

If you can suggest any tutorial or example, that will be helpful.

Thanks in advance.

here's an OK one that guides you through the basics, and it's actually on this site (though for some reason it's under the "special effects" category and not "game development")
