Could you (or someone else) please elaborate more on that ? So far on my research on computer graphics I could not see it as being mostly symbolic computation. Some specific algorithms and applications yes, but not most of it (nor even close). And I've seen some reports on LISP being used for CG, mostly in procedural techniques. Could you please point out where have you seen other uses of functional languages on computer graphics ? Thanks. > > -- > Eijiro Sumii (http://www.yl.is.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp/~sumii/) > Research Associate, Department of Computer Science, University of Tokyo --- []s, Andrei de A.
