Peer reviewedLong, Cliff; Norton, Vic – Two-Year College Mathematics Journal, 1980
The application of Bezier polynomials in computer graphics to generate curves and surfaces is presented. The use of these curves to aid in the design of automobiles is featured, and a BASIC program designed to draw a simple caricature is included. (MP)

Peer reviewedBrandt, Siegmund; Schneider, Hermann – American Journal of Physics, 1976
Describes a computer program that computes field lines and equipotential surfaces for a wide range of field configurations. Presents the mathematical technique and details of the program, the input data, and different modes of graphical representation. (MLH)

Peer reviewedStinebrickner, Ralph – Mathematics and Computer Education, 1983
How a computer randomly generates numbers to turn off lighted blocks on a graphics display is discussed. A computer program is given after reviewing a definition and two theorems and applying them to the problem. (MNS)

Goldman, Gary S. – COED Transactions, 1980
Computer graphics systems typically produce a single, machine-like character font. At most, these systems enable the user to (1) alter the aspect ratio (height-to-width ratio) of the characters, (2) specify a transformation matrix to slant the characters, and (3) define a virtual pen table to change the lineweight of the plotted characters.…

Peer reviewedSloyer, Clifford; Smith, Lynn H. – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 1983
Describes topics and applications of five lessons dealing with applied mathematics (solving sequential optimization problems, queuing theory, graph theory, glyphs (pictorial techniques for displaying relationships among variables, medical mathematics). Design and evaluation of these materials which employ interactive graphics are also described.…

This module is part of a series designed to be used by life science students for instruction in the application of physical theory to ecosystem operation. Most modules contain computer programs which are built around a particular application of a physical process. FFORM is a portable format-free input subroutine package written in ANSI Fortran IV…
