Fundamentals of SVG Programming: Concepts to Source Code is a comprehensive guide to the core concepts of SVG programming, including the coordinate systems, color gradients, grid patterns, Bezier curves, transforms, charts, graphs, and more. Written for those new to SVG, this book does an excellent job of "marrying" SVG to mathematics, showing how simple equations can be used to create and manipulate SVG graphics. It presents the information in "bite-size" pieces, teaching users how to create a plethora of standard graphics, and includes a CD-ROM with over 20,000 ready-to-use code samples derived from geometric objects. These samples can be implemented as is or customized for specific projects. KEY FEATURES

* Uses practical SVG code samples throughout, most of which do not require significant programming experience

* Provides many simple examples that let you produce attractive graphics, and help you learn graphics-related techniques

* Teaches you to create geometric shapes such as arcs, spirals, ellipses, and Bezier curves that can all be modified and extended to your needs On the CD!

(See Appendix A for more details)

* CD LIBRARY

Contains SVG documents for each chapter in the book

* SOURCE CODE

Contains all the code from examples in the book, arranged by chapter

* SUPPLEMENTAL CODE

Contains a number of sub-folders (some of which contain many additional sub-folders) with numerous examples illustrating how to incorporate a particular type of geometric object

* SOFTWARE

Contains a copy of Perl and InstantSaxon, and all the files needed to install them SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

PC: The SVG documents in this book have been fully tested with the Adobe SVG viewer (version 3) on a 2GHz Pentium 4 PC with Windows XP. Roughly 20% of the SVG code was developed on a 166MHz PC (and 64MB of RAM) with the same version of the Adobe SVG viewer, and those documents were rendered with reasonable performance times. The minimum system requirements are: PC with a minimum Pentium III 500MHz processor (2GHz is strongly recommended); minimum of 64MB RAM (128MB recommended); CD-ROM drive; hard disk with at least 200MB free space if you want to install the entire contents of the CD-ROM on your machine; Windows 2000 or later; Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 or higher
