Electrifying Graphics And Sound

Now you have an Electron you will want to get the best from its excellent graphics and sound capabilities. This book shows how you can create interesting graphics not only for games but also more serious applications too. The techniques of drawing and plotting are explained with a minimum of mathematics and many practical programs and routines are included as examples to enjoy as you learn more.

Later sections of the book deal with the more advanced use of the Electron's colour system, and explore animation and the production of pseudo three-dimensional pictures to achieve more sophisticated effects. The techniques of producing sound and music are fully explained, with many examples.
