OpenGL (Open Graphics Library [4]) is a cross-language, cross-platform application programming interface (API) for rendering 2D and 3D vector graphics.The API is typically used to interact with a graphics processing unit (GPU), to achieve hardware-accelerated rendering.
Originally introduced as an extension to OpenGL 1.4, GLSL was formally included into the OpenGL 2.0 core in 2004 by the OpenGL ARB. It was the first major revision to OpenGL since the creation of OpenGL 1.0 in 1992. Some benefits of using GLSL are: Cross-platform compatibility on multiple operating systems, including Linux, macOS and Windows.
Pyglet is a library for the Python programming language that provides an object-oriented application programming interface for the creation of games and other multimedia applications. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] pyglet runs on Microsoft Windows , macOS , and Linux ; it is released under the BSD Licence . pyglet was first created by Alex Holkner.
Pygame was originally written by Pete Shinners to replace PySDL after its development stalled. [2] [8] It has been a community project since 2000 [9] and is released under the free software GNU Lesser General Public License [5] (which "provides for Pygame to be distributed with open source and commercial software" [10]).
GLFW (Graphics Library Framework) is a lightweight utility library for use with OpenGL. It provides programmers with the ability to create and manage windows and OpenGL contexts, as well as handle joystick, keyboard and mouse input. [3]
OpenSceneGraph is an open-source 3D graphics application programming interface (library or framework), [2] used by application developers in fields such as visual simulation, computer games, virtual reality, scientific visualization and modeling.
In Python, the pandas library offers the Series.clip [1] and DataFrame.clip [2] methods. The NumPy library offers the clip [3] function. In the Wolfram Language, it is implemented as Clip [x, {minimum, maximum}]. [4] In OpenGL, the glClearColor function takes four GLfloat values which are then 'clamped' to the range [,]. [5]
While performant, it was too complex to develop and maintain. Hence, in 2009, the team decided to go back to the Python language (with a small C core) and to release MakeHuman as version 1.0 pre-alpha. Development continued at a pace of 2 releases per year. The stable version 1.0.0 was officially released March 14, 2014.
