CS451 Fall 02   FINAL

 

 

 

The final will be in the same format as the midterm: roughly 25 questions, some of which multiple choice, some as

short calculations. Final starts at 7.30 pm and lasts till 10 pm (if you finish early, just leave the classroom quietly).

 

  No notebooks allowed. You can bring in the Red Book. If you do not, you will have to use my copy: no exchange

  of material of any kind (except pens) is allowed.

 

Here is a quick review (chapters refer to the GL Red Book):

 

1)     Chapter 4, Color: ALL.

2)     Chapter 5, Lighting: EVERYTHING, till page 215 (excluded).

3)     Chapter 6: only Fog, from 243 to 249

4)     Chapter 9, Texture Mapping: from 351 to 361 (pay particular attention to example 9-1).

  Moreover, familiarize yourself with all the basic commands for texturing as explained in

  the tutorial at  http://nate.scuzzy.net/docs/texture/ and in the Red Book (go through each

step of example 9-1 and try to grasp the meaning of the parameters involved) .

 

Please review carefully Nate’s tutorials on color, fog and texturing: correct understanding of these tutorials

is a background to the questions on programming.

 

Exercises will include calculations on smooth shading, light intensity, the fog equations, and mapping textels to

world coordinates.

 

NOTE:

 

For math equations on lighting as seen in the last lecture, please refer to Dr. Chen’s notes and to the section of the

Red Book “the Math of Lighting” in Chapter 5.
