fdf

The idea of the fdf project, French "fil de fer" for "wireframe model", is to visualise wireframe models. This is done by reading a map with 3-D coordinates from a file and storing it in a linked list. These 3D coordinates are then transformed into 2D coordinates according to the user's preferences and displayed in a window.

💡 Lessons learned

• working with the API of a graphics library
• understanding points in 2 and 3 dimensional space, vectors and trigonometric functions
• Bresenham's line algorithm
• Using a rotation matrix to transform coordinates

Installation

$ git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/ahokcool/fdf.git    # Clone
$ cd fdf                                                                # Change directory
$ make                                                                  # Compile
$ ./fdf <map_file.fdf>                                                  # Open a map from a file
$ ./fdf <a string>                                                      # Create a map from a string

To use the prorgram you can either load a map...

./fdf ./maps/nice_maps/t2.fdf

... or create a map...

./fdf astein

💡 note: following symbols have a map in ./maps/letters/:

./fdf 'abc...xyz'

./fdf 'ABC...XYZ'

./fdf '01...89'

./fdf '?! _-.'

some of the maps in ./maps/nice_maps/ are from @duarte3333 thx!
