Introduction to Line Drawing Algorithm

Overview

Goals

To help the student to understand the algorithm of line drawing They will learn 3 simple algorithms: Line Equation Algorithm, Digital Differential Algorithm and Bresenham Algorithm.

Learning Objectives

in the end, the students will be able to: To be able to define the term output primitives To be able to define and create points and lines To understand line-drawing algorithms and line function

Context

Line drawing algorithm is the basic concept in computer graphics that is very important. It is the basis of drawing a more complicated output primitives such as the triangles, quads and polygons.
