Deletions are marked like this. Additions are marked like this.
Line 1: Line 1:
Boring unit. Do not choose. Amitava Datta teaches the C interface to OpenGL. Textbooks are the Red Book and the Blue Book, which are available free online.
Line 3: Line 3:
Lots of simple graphics work, the major project has to be written in VisualBasic (it was VB6, but now it may be VB.NET). Amazingly, Datta has agreed to allow the use of any language that provides equivalent OpenGL bindings to the C API. Memory management? Pfah!
Line 5: Line 5:
Taught by MarionCottingham, who also wrote the textbook. Do not buy the textbook. People who have previously done the unit will discourage you from taking the unit based on its Visual Basic past; they can be safely ignored.
