Publisher's Synopsis
Complementing Leendert Ammeraal's earlier book Programming Principles in Computer Graphics, (Wiley, 1986), this book focuses on a lower level of computer graphics. Written for the IBM PC and all compatible machines using PC DOS or MS DOS, it implements the function of the four primitive routines - intigr, move, draw, ebdgr - used in the first book.;It also deals with the special features of 'raster' graphics, writing text in combination with graphics, and finally it develops a simple drawing system. The book's aim is to show that despite the absence of built-in graphics facilities, the C language is suitable for obtaining graphics output.
