<p><font face="serif">Students -- I'm glad to see that several of
you have started on your programming projects -- that's great!
I'll be covering the tesselation algorithm of Meisters (ear clipping)
in class on Monday. There are newer and more efficient (and
lengthy) algorithms for tesselation, but we will be basing our
code off of a derivative of the more simplisitc method from
1975.<br>
</font></p>
<p><font face="serif">After class on Monday you should have most of
the "theory" needed to complete the first programming
assignment.</font></p>
