Re: [JAVA3D] nedd help for algorhytme

Hi,   If speed is not a concern, you can always do something like the pseudocode below.   loop theta = 0 to 2 * pi {    x = xcenter + radius * cos(theta);    y = ycanter + radius * sin(theta);    plot(x,y); }   Is speed is a concern, you should use Bresenham's line scan conversion algorithm adapted for circles.  The details of this can be found in alot of computer graphics books.  I know for a fact the book called Computer Graphics with OpenGL by Hearn and Baker discusses it.  Good luck!   Brian -----Original Message----- From: Discussion list for Java 3D API [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of hterrolle Sent: Thursday, May 20, 2004 2:49 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [JAVA3D] nedd help for algorhytme Hi,   I need an algorythme that will allow me to make a circle of object.   example :                                                 5                     6              4               7                         3                  8                2                         1       thanks a lot. because i am not so good in geometrie.    =========================================================================== To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff JAVA3D-INTEREST".
