I've seen many references to something called "Graphics Gems IV".
Can somebody please enlighten me if this is available online ?
It seems to contain many good articles.

Thanks,
Dennis

I can't remember the authors name, but an Internet search on "Graphics
Gems IV" will lead you to his home page where many code samples and
articles are.

Good luck

The Graphics Gems Repository is at

http://www.acm.org/tog/GraphicsGems/

and includes source code for the entire Gems series (5 volumes in
all). The real goodies are in the books, which explain the thinking
behind the code. Some Gems include no code at all. Head for Academic
Press at

http://www.apcatalog.com/

for ordering information on the books, or bug your local bookstore.

The series has been terminated, I believe, at the behest of the series
editor, Andrew Glassner. Its successor is the Journal of Graphics
Tools, findable at

http://www.acm.org/jgt/

It was a book, one of a series of 5. This particular one was edited by
Paul Heckbert. An Internet search should lead you to many homepages and
source code that talk about it. It is basically a collection of articles
and source for useful graphics algorithms. Checkout amazon.com if you're
interestd in buying the books -- they have them at like 30% off.
