Re: A89: Cabri Geometry Clone?




My advice is to start reading up on the math.
Transformations, Rotations, Translations, Mirroring, Matricies, Symetry,
angles, spelling, sence.

*Anybody got any good links to that sort of info?*

I got some stuff at Tower Books (in seattle area atleast)... a bookstore
with a good computer section.

Speaking of that... How the heck would I show a line that is partialy on
screen?

I was thinking about making an app that does that sort of stuff.  Although
it would serve a different purpose.
It would be for animations and menus.  I would call it strip (as opposed to
Flash).  I will gladly research and work on a geometry program, (I am a
newbie at asm, but I read many books about geometry and asm)

All I have is a list of features.

Animation, Collision detection, Scaling, rotating, mirroring, bitmaps,
greyscale, clipping (moving off screen), layers, groupings, keyframes that
deal with vertexes.
