A line drawing algorithm is a graphical algorithm for approximating a line segment on discrete graphical media. On discrete media, such as pixel-based display and printer, line drawing requires such an approximation (in nontrivial cases). On continuous media, by contrast, no algorithm is necessary to draw a line. For example, oscilloscope use natural phenomena to draw lines and curves. It is assumed here that the points have already been ordered so that .This algorithm works just fine when ,... full article at wikipedia
