Fillpoly Function in C

The fillpoly() function in C is used to draw and fill polygons like triangles, rectangles, pentagons and hexagons. It requires the same arguments as drawpoly() - the number of points and an array of x-y coordinate pairs. The number parameter specifies the total points including the first point being equal to the last to close the figure. The function fills the enclosed area defined by the coordinate points.

fillpoly() function in C

Concept
Now the header file graphics.h contains fillpoly() function which is implemented to draw and fill a
polygon such as triangle, rectangle, pentagon, hexagon etc. So this function require same
arguments as drawpoly().

Syntax
void fillpoly( int number, int *polypoints );

In this case,number indicates (n + 1) number of points where, n is the number of vertices in a


polygon and polypoints points to a sequence of (n*2) integers.

Input 

arr[] = {320, 150, 400, 250, 250, 350, 320, 150};

Output 

Explanation 

So the declaration of fillpoly() contains two arguments: number specifies (n + 1) number of


points where n is indicated as the number of vertices in a polygon.The second argument, such
as, polypoints points to a sequence of (n * 2) integers. As a result of this,each pair of integers
provides x and y coordinates of a point on the polygon. So we indicate (n + 1) points because
first point coordinates should be equal to (n + 1)th for drawing a complete figure.
Example
// C Implementation for fillpoly()

#include <graphics.h>

// driver code

intmain(){

   // Here gm1 is Graphics mode which is a computer display mode that

   // produces image using pixels. DETECT is a macro defined in

   // "graphics.h" header file

   intgd1 = DETECT, gm1;

   // Different coordinates for polygon

   intarr1[] = {320, 150, 400, 250, 250, 350, 320, 150};

   // Here initgraph initializes the

   // graphics system by loading a

   // graphics driver from disk

   initgraph(&gd1, &gm1, "");

   // fillpoly function

   fillpoly(4, arr1);

   getch();

   // Here closegraph function closes the

   // graphics mode and deallocates

   // all memory allocated by

   // graphics system .

   closegraph();

   return0;

Output
