DESCRIPTION:
probably good in 1995 Fan Liu probably good in 1995, but now it`s 2016 and it`s really not too useful. even for a tutorial in computer graphics.. book marker said book review. This is a bible for computer graphics. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn computer graphics knowledge base.. Stanford's Text of Choice I have nearly completed my first computer graphics class (of several) at Stanford University, and this was the primary text. While this is definitely not a text for the "cut-and-paste"-programmers, for anyone with a real interest in computer graphics (and the psychophysiology, math, and theory behind it), this is definitely *the* book to read. The writing style is actually very accessible, provided you are willing to work to understand it. While I knew I was interested in graphics prior
Computer Graphics: Principles and Practice is the most exhaustive overview of computer graphics techniques available. The guide has over 100 beautiful, four-color photographs that illustrate important topics and algorithms, such as ray tracing and bump maps, and also inspire you to acquire the skills necessary to produce them. Assuming a solid background in computer science or a related field, Computer Graphicsgives example programs in C and provides exercises at the end of each chapter to test your knowledge of the material. . Encyclopedic in its coverage, the book has a good table of contents so that you can immediately turn to information on the z-Buffer algorithm or the chapter on animation. This textboo
*Raster graphics hardware and software, including both basic and advanced algorithms for scan converting and clipping lines, polygons, conics, spline curves, and text. Hardware concerns are examined in a chapter, contributed by Steven Molnar and Henry Fuchs, on advanced architectures for real-time, high performance graphics. The book's many outstanding features continue to ensure its position as the standard computer graphics text and reference. The comprehensive topic coverage includes: *Programming with SRGP, a simple but powerful raster graphics package that combines features of Apple's QuickDraw and the MIT X Window System graphics library. There is also a thorough presentation of the mathematica
