  4. Midpoint circle algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midpoint_circle_algorithm

    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 is a generalization of Bresenham's line algorithm. The algorithm can be further generalized to conic sections. [1] [2] [3]

    5. A chord of a circle is a line segment connecting two points on the circle; the intersection graph of a collection of chords is called a circle graph. chromatic Having to do with coloring; see color. Chromatic graph theory is the theory of graph coloring. The chromatic number χ(G) is the minimum number of colors needed in a proper coloring of G.

    A circle bounds a region of the plane called a disc. The circle has been known since before the beginning of recorded history. Natural circles are common, such as the full moon or a slice of round fruit. The circle is the basis for the wheel, which, with related inventions such as gears, makes much of modern
