  2. Range (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_(computer_programming)

    Another meaning of range in computer science is an alternative to iterator. When used in this sense, range is defined as "a pair of begin/end iterators packed together". [1] It is argued [1] that "Ranges are a superior abstraction" (compared to iterators) for several reasons, including better safety.

    Simplest form of interpolation that for given position outputs the color of the nearest sample. Noise In real world data a noise is an unwanted distortion of the captured signal, e.g. in photography. In rendering, artificial noise, such as white noise or Perlin noise, is often generated and added on purpose to add realism. Normal mapping

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_image

    A digital image is an image composed of picture elements, also known as pixels, each with finite, discrete quantities of numeric representation for its intensity or gray level that is an output from its two-dimensional functions fed as input by its spatial coordinates denoted with x, y on the x-axis and y-axis, respectively. [1]

    This example shows an image with a portion greatly enlarged so that individual pixels, rendered as small squares, can easily be seen. In digital imaging, a pixel (abbreviated px), pel, [1] or picture element [2] is the smallest addressable element in a raster image, or the smallest addressable element in a dot matrix display device.

    They called these device-independent bitmaps "DIBs", and the file format for them is called DIB file format or BMP file format. According to Microsoft support: [6] A device-independent bitmap (DIB) is a format used to define device-independent bitmaps in various color resolutions. The main purpose of DIBs is to allow bitmaps to be moved from ...

    A modern rendering of the Utah teapot, an iconic model in 3D computer graphics created by Martin Newell in 1975. Computer graphics is a sub-field of computer science which studies methods for digitally synthesizing and manipulating visual content. Although the term often refers to the study of three-dimensional computer graphics, it also ...
