The program­ ming language is C++. The programs will run under various operating systems, among them WINDOWS 9x, ALPHA-STATIONS (Digital workstations) and SILI­ CON GRAPHICS workstations. Hardware is used if accessible. The book provides a graphics library. This library is based on OPENGL and expands the elemen­ tary routines. Thus, the reader is enabled to realize direct geometrical thinking without having to care much about implementation. The enclosed modules provide the reader with solutions for: • The most common intersection problems and measuring tasks of both pla­ nar and spatial geometry. • The creation ofarbitrary geometric objects, e.g., by means ofdifferent kinds of \"sweeping.\" • The creation of the most general solids by means of Boolean operations (intersection, union, and complements of solid polyhedra). The book presents: • A well documented, versatile, and robust geometry library. The reader can use it very easily and expand it in any way he\/she likes. vi Preface • A programming course that provides a deeper insight into object-oriented thinking and programming.It contains an introduction to C++ (for begin­ ners and intermediate programmers) that is influenced by the experience gained from thousands of programming hours (which may even be useful to experienced programmers).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1998-12-21\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780387985992\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4612-1428-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 254.0cm x178.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 377.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45583142551692,"sku":"9780387985992","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780387985992.jpg?v=1767202388","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780387985992","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
