Bezier Curves 75
Back to General discussions forum
Hi,
I've tried a multitude of rounding from 0 to 10 sig figs. But my answers seem to just keep getting
a little wayward, they start and end fine and the example problem works fine as well.
I suspect it is a rounding error has the answers never get very far from the mark, ~+-|1.5| away.
I am using the Linear Bezier curve alogorithm, should I not?
Hi!
I'll try to check your code and return back as soon as I can find anything which may help!
Well, I'm sorry to say so, but your algorithm seems to calculate something different :)
Moreover I'm sorry to say I could not well understand what exactly it calculates! :D
Most suspicious is usage of Math.Pow - I thought the algorithm uses only linear formulas.
Perhaps you are calculating some polynomial approximation? Could you please provide some link to some
explanations of your formulas where I can read bit more (I'm also sorry to say my math skills
are not great)?
I tried my best to create this
reference implementation
in C# which, probably, could serve as explanation. I'm sorry for my clumsy code - I have
close to none experience with this language (though google helps much, ha-ha).
P.S. As you may guess, it's again me, Rodion - sorry for bewilderment with accounts :)
It was able to come up with the right answer... after a few trys, I played the odds and went with
one that didn't disect 1 into so many steps.
My program is a mess, as I too am not very strong in the math.
But I skimmed by, fine by me :)
