objects. \u003cp\u003eIn a logical progression of ideas, the reader is introduced to some of the classic graphics algorithms and finally to chapters which cover particular effects such as perspective drawings and hidden-face and hidden-line elimination.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book also provides a host of ready-to-run programs and worked examples to illuminate general principles and
