Line Drawing
Algorithm
Procedure-
Given-
Starting coordinates = (X0, Y0)
Ending coordinates = (Xn, Yn)
The points generation using Bresenham
Line Drawing Algorithm involves the
following step
Step-01:
Calculate ΔX and ΔY from the given input.
These parameters are calculated as-
ΔX = Xn – X0
ΔY =Yn – Y0
Step-02:
Calculate the decision parameter Pk.
It is calculated as-
Pk = 2ΔY – ΔX
Step-03:
Suppose the current point is (Xk, Yk) and the next point is (Xk+1, Yk+1).
Find the next point depending on the value of decision parameter P k.
Follow the below two cases-
Step-04:
Keep repeating Step-03 until the end point is reached
or number of iterations equals to (ΔX-1) times.
• PRACTICE PROBLEMS BASED
ON BRESENHAM LINE
DRAWING ALGORITHM-
Problem-01:
Calculate the points between the starting coordinates
(9, 18) and ending coordinates (14, 22).
Solution-
Given-
Starting coordinates = (X0, Y0) = (9, 18)
Ending coordinates = (Xn, Yn) = (14, 22)
Step-01:
Calculate ΔX and ΔY from the given input.
•ΔX = Xn – X0 = 14 – 9 = 5
•ΔY =Yn – Y0 = 22 – 18 = 4
Step-02:
Calculate the decision parameter.
Pk
= 2ΔY – ΔX
=2x4–5
=3
So, decision parameter Pk = 3
Step-03:
As Pk >= 0, so case-02 is satisfied.
Thus,
•Pk+1 = Pk + 2ΔY – 2ΔX = 3 + (2 x 4) – (2 x 5) = 1
•Xk+1 = Xk + 1 = 9 + 1 = 10
•Yk+1 = Yk + 1 = 18 + 1 = 19
Similarly, Step-03 is executed until the end point is reached or number of iterations equals to 4 times.
(Number of iterations = ΔX – 1 = 5 – 1 = 4)
Problem-02:
Calculate the points between the starting coordinates (20, 10) and ending
coordinates (30, 18).
Solution-
Given-
•Starting coordinates = (X0, Y0) = (20, 10)
•Ending coordinates = (Xn, Yn) = (30, 18)
Step-01:
Calculate ΔX and ΔY from the given input.
•ΔX = Xn – X0 = 30 – 20 = 10
•ΔY =Yn – Y0 = 18 – 10 = 8
Step-02:
Calculate the decision parameter.
Pk
= 2ΔY – ΔX
= 2 x 8 – 10
=6
So, decision parameter Pk = 6
Step-03:
As Pk >= 0, so case-02 is satisfied.
Thus,
•Pk+1 = Pk + 2ΔY – 2ΔX = 6 + (2 x 8) – (2 x 10) = 2
•Xk+1 = Xk + 1 = 20 + 1 = 21
•Yk+1 = Yk + 1 = 10 + 1 = 11
Similarly, Step-03 is executed until the end point is reached or number of iterations equals to 9 times.
(Number of iterations = ΔX – 1 = 10 – 1 = 9)
