Objective:

This session introduces the student to the main concept of OpenGL explaining how graphics are generated through the OpenGL library by describing the structure of OpenGL, in this session the student should get to understand the following:

How to install the OpenGL/GLUT library files into the system.
Understand the basic syntax of OpenGL functions.
Understand the purpose of each function invoked.
Writing a simple routine to create line segment.
Understanding the displaying callback function.

By the end of this session the student must be able to write a complete OpenGL program using C++.
