glutSolidSphere(3GLUT) GLUT glutSolidSphere(3GLUT)NAME
glutSolidSphere, glutWireSphere - render a solid or wireframe sphere
respectively.
SYNTAX
void glutSolidSphere(GLdouble radius,
GLint slices, GLint stacks);
void glutWireSphere(GLdouble radius,
GLint slices, GLint stacks);
ARGUMENTS
radius The radius of the sphere.
slices The number of subdivisions around the Z axis (similar to
lines of longitude).
stacks The number of subdivisions along the Z axis (similar to lines
of latitude).
DESCRIPTION
Renders a sphere centered at the modeling coordinates origin of the
specified radius. The sphere is subdivided around the Z axis into
slices and along the Z axis into stacks.
