Chapter 10, Problem 19CRP
Program Plan Intro
Modeling:
- It is a process in which a scene graph is created by usage of polygonal meshes that represents different objects on set.
- It includes mathematical principles, it attempts to maximize details.
- The mesh can be loaded into at same time based on constraints of speed and storage.
- It uses different
algorithms for generating homogenous objects.
Rendering:
- It is process of determining the way the objects appears in scene graph when projected onto plane.
- It involves determining light surface interaction to determine manner in which light is refracted, reflected or absorbed at object’s surface.
- It determines the objects that would be visible at center of projection and those hidden by other objects.
- It determines shading required at given point on surface through interpolation of intensity and edges of polygonal patches.
Explanation of Solution

In Task 2, you try to look inside the generative process. What can you say about it?
Select one:
a.
The generative process appears slightly chaotic and is not immediately clear for a human to interpret.
b.
The model starts with the image it came up with which is first in black and white. It then gradually colours the image one bit at a time.
c.
The model drafts things similarly as a human would. It starts by sketching out outlines and then fills in the details.
A logical step forward from interactive animated programs is games. The goal of this assignment is to program the classic computer game, Snake.
The goal of Snake is to create a snake as long as possible. This is achieved by guiding the snake to an apple on the game board. The snake cannot stop moving, and dies whenever it hits something (excluding apples). Because the snake is growing longer and longer as the game progresses, it gets increasingly difficult to avoid collisions with the snake itself. The player can change the direction of the head of the snake by using the arrow keys. At step in the game, there is always an apple somewhere on the board. If the snake eats an apple, the snake becomes one cell longer. A new apple is placed on a random location, excluding all places covered by the snake. When the snake reaches a side of the game board, it re-emerges at the opposite end.
It is probably easiest to understand the game by playing it yourself. You can find a lot of snake…
