[comp.graphics] Drawing Circles

ksbooth@watcgl.UUCP (09/20/87)

There was posting not too long ago asking about drawing "good"
circle approximations on raster devices.  I don't think anyone
posted a reference.

For drawing circles, see recent Dr. Dobbs Journal.  It has several
algorithms for drawing a circle; some very good, some very bad, most
in between.

There is a nice discussion of circle drawing in the current (Sept. 1987)
issue of Dr. Dobb's Journal.
