  2. Bresenham's line algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bresenham's_line_algorithm

    The starting point is on the line (,) =only because the line is defined to start and end on integer coordinates (though it is entirely reasonable to want to draw a line with non-integer end points).

    Niklaus Emil Wirth (IPA: / v ɛr t /) (15 February 1934 – 1 January 2024) was a Swiss computer scientist.He designed several programming languages, including Pascal, and pioneered several classic topics in software engineering.

  4. Midpoint circle algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midpoint_circle_algorithm

    This algorithm draws all eight octants simultaneously, starting from each cardinal direction (0°, 90°, 180°, 270°) and extends both ways to reach the nearest multiple of 45° (45°, 135°, 225°, 315°).

  5. Pascal (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal_(programming_language)

    Pascal-P5, created outside the Zürich group, accepts the full Pascal language and includes ISO 7185 compatibility. Pascal-P6 is a follow on to Pascal-P5 that along with other features, aims to be a compiler for specific CPUs, including AMD64. UCSD Pascal branched off Pascal-P2, where Kenneth Bowles used it to create the interpretive UCSD p-System.

    Devised by Niklaus Wirth in the late 1960s and early 1970s, Pascal is a programming language.Originally produced by Borland Software Corporation, Embarcadero Delphi is composed of an IDE, set of standard libraries, and a Pascal-based language commonly called either Object Pascal, Delphi Pascal, or simply 'Delphi' (Embarcadero's current documentation refers to it as 'the Delphi language (Object ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Problem_of_points

    The problem of points, also called the problem of division of the stakes, is a classical problem in probability theory.One of the famous problems that motivated the beginnings of modern probability theory in the 17th century, it led Blaise Pascal to the first explicit reasoning about what today is known as an expected value.

  9. PascalABC.NET - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PascalABC.NET

    PascalABC.NET was developed by a group of enthusiasts at the Institute of Mathematics, Mechanics, and Computer Science in Rostov-on-Don, Russia. [1] In 2003, a predecessor of the modern PascalABC.NET, called Pascal ABC, was implemented by associate professor Stanislav Mikhalkovich to be used for teaching schoolchildren instead of Turbo Pascal, which became outdated and incompatible with modern ...
