A primer on Bézier curves
- sgentle 17y agoThat's pretty comprehensive, but this is the best introduction to Bezier curves I've ever seen: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Bezier_2_big.gif http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Bezier_2_big.gif
- ilkhd2 17y agoThe article has very good illustrations, I am wondering what was the software used.
- slackenerny 17y agoMetaPost would be the usual suspect, but he probably used his own Python-to-PostScript wrapper: http://www.math.ubc.ca/~cass/piscript/docs/piscript.html http://www.math.ubc.ca/~cass/piscript/docs/piscript.html . Recently many mathematicians I know are plotting with NodeBox which is a VJ software akin to Proce55ing but using Python. Edit: He also authored a lovely PostScript cook book http://www.math.ubc.ca/~cass/graphics/manual/ http://www.math.ubc.ca/~cass/graphics/manual/
- ilkhd2 17y agothanks, great info. P.S. AFAIK Processing is not 55 anymore
