Features: Computer graphics is a highly engaging and important field in computer science. It uses computational methods to generate graphics and images, with widespread applications in human-computer information interaction, computer-aided design, scientific and statistical data visualization, as well as digital art creation. This book systematically elaborates on the fundamental concepts, mathematical tools, algorithms, and techniques of computer graphics, and provides a detailed introduction to OpenGL, a graphics application programming interface available on multiple platforms. The book is primarily intended for undergraduate or graduate students in computer science, computer engineering, and computer applications who have chosen to take computer graphics. It is also suitable for students from other disciplines, particularly those in science and engineering, who have completed one to two semesters of advanced mathematics and basic computer programming, as well as individuals with equivalent experience.
