robot.c from the OpenGL Redbook

This is the screenshot on my Mac.

Well here it is fully compiled from the Redbook, we modified the #include statements to incorporate more "dynamics" from this code using C and C++.

Fingers, as the Redbook suggests and maybe some texturing to make this look like a real robot arm. The possibilities are virtually endless with 700 functions to choose from, OpenGL and GLUT.

I am more for space and virtually replicating accurate space travel, in tune with our understanding with Physics and Gravity.

The fundamentals are always great to draw from, graphics and 3D code are always more flashy than system administration and network programming. But make no mistake, just because its "behind the scenes" doesn't make it any less important.
