Smith, David A., Ed.; And Others – College Mathematics Journal, 1987
Five guidelines for enhancing the value of a computer graphics program are described and illustrated. Using a well-structured program, correct scaling, normalized device coordinates, word coordinates, and illusions are discussed. (MNS)
