A circle of radius 23 drawn by the Bresenham algorithm. In computer graphics, the midpoint circle algorithm is an algorithm used to determine the points needed for rasterizing a circle. It's a generalization of Bresenham's line algorithm. The algorithm can be further generalized to conic sections. [1] [2] [3]

A simple way to parallelize single-color line rasterization is to let multiple line-drawing algorithms draw offset pixels of a certain distance from each other. [2] Another method involves dividing the line into multiple sections of approximately equal length, which are then assigned to different processors for rasterization. The main problem ...
Bresenham's line algorithm, developed in 1962, is his most well-known innovation. It determines which points on a 2-dimensional raster should be plotted in order to form a straight line between two given points, and is commonly used to draw lines on a computer screen. It is one of the earliest algorithms discovered in the field of computer ...
Jack Bresenham is a former professor of computer science. He developed the Bresenham's line algorithm, his most well-known invention in 1962. He retired from 27 years of service at IBM as a Senior Technical Staff Member, taught for 16 years at Winthrop University and has nine patents.
The NIST Dictionary of Algorithms and Data Structures [1] is a reference work maintained by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology. It defines a large number of terms relating to algorithms and data structures. For algorithms and data structures not necessarily mentioned here, see list of algorithms and list of data structures.

A slerp path is, in fact, the spherical geometry equivalent of a path along a line segment in the plane; a great circle is a spherical geodesic. Oblique vector rectifies to slerp factor. More familiar than the general slerp formula is the case when the end vectors are perpendicular, in which case the formula is p 0 cos θ + p 1 sin θ.
