Study Notes
Computer Graphics Basics
- Scan conversion is also known as rasterization.
- A pixel refers to a single point on a computer display, representing a small unit of a digital image.
Pixels and Display
- The process of converting a mathematical point into a pixel on a computer display is called scan conversion or rasterization.
- The term 'pixel' is short for 'Picture Element'.
- To draw a point on the display screen, a pixel is required.
Digital Images
- In a digital image, rows and columns are made up of pixels.
- The smallest picture unit accepted by display devices is a pixel.
Python Libraries
- The Python library that can be used for drawing pixels on the screen is unknown (not specified in the text).
Graphics Rendering
- Scan conversion is the process that creates a pattern of points identical to the objects to be displayed.
