color:windowtext">About the Tutorial
To display a
picture of any size on a computer screen is a difficult process. Computer
graphics are used to simplify this process. Various algorithms and techniques
are used to generate graphics in computers. This tutorial will help you
understand how all these are processed by the computer to give a rich visual
experience to the user.
