Features: Visual Basic is an excellent programming tool in the Windows environment and an object-oriented integrated development system. It inherits the simple, efficient, easy-to-learn, and user-friendly features of BASIC while incorporating advanced software development technologies such as object-oriented, visual, and event-driven programming. Today, a large number of programmers use Visual Basic to develop various types of applications. This book is the sister volume to Fundamentals of Computer Graphics Using Visual Basic. Building on that book, this volume focuses on practical techniques in computer graphics. It is a specialized work within the Engineering Graphics Series Textbooks that introduces practical techniques in computer graphics using Visual Basic. The book is divided into two main parts: the Teaching Section and the Experiment Section. The Teaching Section consists of five chapters: Chapter 1 introduces the basics of VB computer graphics technology; Chapter 2 covers the mathematical foundations of computer graphics; Chapter 3 provides a detailed explanation of data structures and practical algorithms in interactive drawing system design; Chapter 4 demonstrates the application of VB computer graphics technology through examples in mechanics; and Chapter 5 introduces the application of VB computer graphics technology through examples in mechanical engineering. The Experiment Section is equipped with corresponding experimental content for the Teaching Section. This book is suitable as a textbook for undergraduate and graduate students in various colleges and universities, as well as a reference for professionals engaged in computer software development in research institutions.
