Bradenham's Line Algorithm

The Bradenham's Line algorithm generates points along a line between two given points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) in 8 steps. It calculates slope, increments, and checks if the current point is past the ending point before generating the next point and drawing it. The circle algorithm generates points along a circle of radius r centered at the origin using a decision parameter p to determine if the next point is (x+1, y) or (x+1, y-1). The ellipse algorithm generates points along an ellipse with given radii along the x and y axes using different decision parameters p1 and p2 for the top and bottom regions to iteratively determine the

Bradenham's Line

Algorithm:
Step1: Start Algorithm
Step2: Declare variable x1,x2,y1,y2,d,i1,i2,dx,dy
Step3: Enter value of x1,y1,x2,y2
                Where x1,y1are coordinates of starting point
                And x2,y2 are coordinates of Ending point
Step4: Calculate dx = x2-x1
                Calculate dy = y2-y1
                Calculate i1=2*dy
                Calculate i2=2*(dy-dx)
                Calculate d=i1-dx

Step5: Consider (x, y) as starting point and xendas maximum possible value of x.


                If dx < 0
                        Then x = x2
                        y = y2
                          xend=x1
                If dx > 0
                    Then x = x1
                y = y1
                        xend=x2
Step6: Generate point at (x,y)coordinates.
Step7:Check if whole line is generated.
                If x > = xend
                Stop.
Step8: Calculate co-ordinates of the next pixel
                If d < 0
                    Then d = d + i1
                If d ≥ 0
          Then d = d + i2
                Increment y = y + 1
Step9: Increment x = x + 1
Step10: Draw a point of latest (x, y) coordinates
Step11: Go to step 7
Step12: End of Algorithm
Circle algorithm
) )
Step1: Put x =0, y =r in eq: Pi=f (xi+1,yi- 1/2 = (xi+1)2+(yi-1/2 2-r2
            We have p=1-r

Step2: Repeat steps while x ≤ y


            Plot (x, y)
            If (p<0)
Then set p = p + 2x + 3
Else
            p = p + 2(x-y)+5
            y =y - 1 (end if)
            x =x+1 (end loop)
Step3: End
Ellipse alogorithm
1) Take input radius along x axis and y axis and obtain center of ellipse.
2) Initially, we assume ellipse to be centered at origin and the first point as : (x, y0)= (0,
ry).
3) Obtain the initial decision parameter for region 1 as: p10=ry2+1/4rx2-rx 2ry
4) For every xk position in region 1 : 
If p1k<0 then the next point along the is (xk+1 , yk) and p1k+1=p1k+2ry2xk+1+ry2
Else, the next point is (xk+1, yk-1 ) 
And p1k+1=p1k+2ry2xk+1 – 2rx2yk+1+ry2
5) Obtain the initial value in region 2 using the last point (x0, y0) of region 1 as:
p20=ry2(x0+1/2)2+rx2 (y0-1)2-rx2ry2
6) At each yk in region 2 starting at k =0 perform the following task. 
If p2k>0 the next point is (xk, yk-1) and p2k+1=p2k-2rx2yk+1+rx2
7) Else, the next point is (xk+1, yk -1) and p2k+1=p2k+2ry2xk+1 -2rx2yk+1+rx2
8) Now obtain the symmetric points in the three quadrants and plot the coordinate
value as: x=x+xc, y=y+yc
9) Repeat the steps for region 1 until 2ry2x>=2rx2y
