General Bresenhams Line Algorithm
Basic Bresenham line algorithm is given for line in the first octant.
To render a general line (A, B):
1. Transform the line (P1, P2) into the line (P1, P2) in the first
octant
2. Compute the raster line (P1, P2)
1. For each point P
1. Compute point P for the initial line
2. Render point P

Elements of Computer Assisted Graphics 31
Elements of Computer Assisted Graphics 32
Area Sampling - solutions

1. Unweighted area sampling
I = f(d)
Intensity of a pixel decreases as the distance between the pixel center
and the edge increases
A primitive does not influence the intensity of a pixel at all if there is no
intersection
Equal areas contribute equal intensity

2. Weighted area sampling
I = f (A, d), weighting function, filter function
The pixel represent a circular area larger than the square tile
The primitive intersects the circular area
The intersection area contributes to the intensity
e.g. Goupta-Sproull incremental method for antialiasing lines
