    From what I just read, this has only just now become popular in 3D graphics -- only because modern video cards are fast enough to compute it in real time (vertex shaders).

      Does this help?

        I'm on the bleeding of compsci, and I suck at computers.

          maybe. Looks good. Am not in a state right now to properly evaluate usefulness of sources on things this complicated

          Thank you :beer:

            No, the problem was it wasn't fast enough to do it in real-time.

              I'm actually pretty good t the things that compsci people actually study. I'm just not good at actually using computers or knowing proper syntax etc.

              Took me 5 hours to figure out how to link to the right libraries and put them in my path on my compiler.s

              But once I'm done with setting **** like that up I can wrock out on ll the math stuff...

                Well computer science is just applied math, and math is math is math.

                  i know. that's what i'm saying.

                  i'm not bad at compsci, yet i suck at computers.

                    took me an hour to figuer out how to set up an xhost and to setenv Display so I could run GUIs from a remote location

                      You know what would be interesting, is you get a PCI-Express system with a Radeon X850 -- then implement this algorithm using the GPU and have it write the results out to main memory.

                      I bet you it'd be easily 100x faster than having a general purpose CPU do it.

                        Hey man ain't no shame in that. It's not exactly intuitive.

                        Which OS and what kind of hardware are you using?

                          no idea what you're on about now.

                          i just right down recursion relations and transform bases and use others of the thousands of math tricks I've stockpiled to now

                          i don't know how computers actually work...

                            solaris workstations sshing into a linux box

                            they're really ****ty old workstations, but luckily they're netweorked well enough that they steal each other's processing time if there's nobody else using them (network is about 100 computers), so **** runds rpetty fast overnight.
