I have heard that drawing to the screen with SDL is the fastest way to draw.
I unfortunately need some help. My question is the following:
I have a an array of "unsigned char"s and its filled with RGB triplets and
each color being a byte long. I need a fast way to draw this image onto the
screen since each image will be part of an animation.
I haven’t been able to find any SDL functions that is able to take this
array. If somebody could provide an example of a fast and efficient way to
draw this array to screen it would very much appreciated. I tried drawing
the image to screen pixel by pixel (like as in the manual) but it seemed
slow and the image didn’t show up quiet right.
Thanks for the help in advance for this SDL newbie.

Look into SDL_CreateRGBSurfaceFrom, you can use it to create a
SDL_Surface connected to your data, and then just use the standard
blitting funtions on your data.
