Bill and Chris describe how to use the mouse and Presentation Manager to define a group of points and draw the resulting line, all in a protected-mode environment.
by Keith Weiskamp and Loren Heiny
Creating, saving, and editing icons for graphics applications is a snap with Keith and Loren's icon editor and its support tools.
by Chuck McManis
"High-performance graphics applications" is often a contradiction of terms, especially on low-end systems. Chuck shows how the Amiga's multitasking OS and built-in graphics coprocessor coax 32-bit graphics performance out of a 16-bit machine.

Boyer-Moore is a hybrid algorithm that combines pattern analysis with brute force to produce faster string searches. This method speeds up Costas' programs, and he shows how it can speed up yours too.
by Bill Catchings and Mark L. Van Name
Bill and Mark put Borland's Turbo Debugger through its paces and find that, although correcting programming mistakes isn't necessarily fun, it doesn't have to be all that painful either.

While picking up some spare change, Michael asks Hal Hardenbergh why a hardware engineer would find neural networks fun.
by Al Stevens
The Blackjack simulation program Al presents this month saved him some money and you can bet that it will save you some too.
by Kent Porter
It's possible to have do-it-yourself screen coordinates by simply redefining the coordinate system in any terms you like. And doing so, says Kent, opens the door to new graphics programming tricks and techniques.
