Definition: Computer Graphics - the study of creating, manipulating, and using visual images on the computer. A combination of science + engineering + art

Course Pre-requisites:
	Knowledge of C, Java
	basic linear algebra - matrices, vectors, etc.

Will be expected to learn and use C++ basics, but will not be explicitly tested on the language itself. For this class, we will be using the Qt graphics library to integrate everything (C++, GLSL, openGL)

There are 2 basic types of rendering algorithms
Rasterization Approach
for each object {
	for each pixel in the image {
		if ( object affects pixel ) {
			// do something

		}
	}
}

Ray/Path Tracing Approach
for each pixel in the image {
	for each object in the scene {
		if (object effects pixel) {
			// do something
		}
	}
}
