Microcomputer graphics comes of age with the publication of this book. More than just a miscellaneous collection of listings and tricks, it provides a comprehensive guide to the theory and practice of microcomputer graphics. If that sounds daunting, don't worry - it isn't! The book is presented in the clear, readable style which has become the hallmark of the authors' highly successful books for micro users.
BBC Micro and Electron owners will find that the authors' innovative approach will give them access, for the first time, to a whole range of advanced graphics techniques. Extensive coverage is given to interactive graphics, enabling users to build up colouring and painting software for recreational, educational, and CAD use. Both the engineering and scientific uses of microcomputer graphics and mathematically generated computer art are discussed in depth.
