Intro to POV-Ray and 3D Geometry Programing
This page is a brief introduction to 3D model programing. More specifically, the goal is to use various programing tools, to create 3D-models, for the purposes of Illustrating Geometry, Algorithmic Mathematical Art, and dynamic visualization. This page introduces you to a few 3D graphics formats, and shows you how to use various programs to render them or view them with real-time rotation. (all tools and formats described here can be freely obtained.)

Mathematica Graphics
This section introduces Mathematica's graphics format, and how to use Java to view them real-time rotation.
