  2. Off-side rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Off-side_rule

    The off-side rule describes syntax of a computer programming language that defines the bounds of a code block via indentation. [1] [2]The term was coined by Peter Landin, possibly as a pun on the offside law in association football.

  3. Turtle graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turtle_graphics

    Turtle graphics are often associated with the Logo programming language. [2] Seymour Papert added support for turtle graphics to Logo in the late 1960s to support his version of the turtle robot, a simple robot controlled from the user's workstation that is designed to carry out the drawing functions assigned to it using a small retractable pen set into or attached to the robot's body.

  4. Pygame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pygame

    Other features that SDL does have include vector math, collision detection, 2D sprite scene graph management, MIDI support, camera, pixel-array manipulation, transformations, filtering, advanced freetype font support, and drawing. [13] Applications using Pygame can run on Android phones and tablets with the use of Pygame Subset for Android ...

  5. Midpoint circle algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midpoint_circle_algorithm

    It usually comes after drawing the pixels in each iteration, because it never goes below the radius on the first pixel. Because in a continuous function, the function for a sphere is the function for a circle with the radius dependent on z (or whatever the third variable is), it stands to reason that the algorithm for a discrete ( voxel ...

  6. Asymptote (vector graphics language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymptote_(vector_graphics...

    Asymptote is also notable for having a graphical interface coded in Python (and the Tk widget set), xasy.py – this allows an inexperienced user to quickly draw up objects and save them as .asy source code which can then be examined or edited by hand. The program's syntax was originally described by using a Yacc compatible grammar.

  7. Plotting algorithms for the Mandelbrot set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plotting_algorithms_for...

    The distance estimation can be used for drawing of the boundary of the Mandelbrot set, see the article Julia set. In this approach, pixels that are sufficiently close to M are drawn using a different color. This creates drawings where the thin "filaments" of the Mandelbrot set can be easily seen.

  8. Callout - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Callout

    In publishing, a callout or call-out is a short string of text connected by a line, arrow, or similar graphic to a feature of an illustration or technical drawing, and giving information about that feature. The term is also used to describe a short piece of text set in larger type than the rest of the page and intended to attract attention.

  9. APL syntax and symbols - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APL_syntax_and_symbols

    Inside a program or a custom function, control may be conditionally transferred to a statement identified by a line number or explicit label; if the target is 0 (zero) this terminates the program or returns to a function's caller.
