Task
Bitmap/Bézier curves/Quadratic
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.

Using the data storage type defined on this page for raster images, and the draw_line function defined in this one, draw a quadratic bezier curve (definition on Wikipedia).

C

Interface (to be added to all other to make the final imglib.h):

<lang c>void quad_bezier(

       image img,
       unsigned int x1, unsigned int y1,
       unsigned int x2, unsigned int y2,
       unsigned int x3, unsigned int y3,
       color_component r,
       color_component g,
       color_component b );</lang>

Implementation:

<lang c>#include <math.h>

/* number of segments for the curve */

  1. define N_SEG 20
  1. define plot(x, y) put_pixel_clip(img, x, y, r, g, b)
  2. define line(x0,y0,x1,y1) draw_line(img, x0,y0,x1,y1, r,g,b)

void quad_bezier(

       image img,
       unsigned int x1, unsigned int y1,
       unsigned int x2, unsigned int y2,
       unsigned int x3, unsigned int y3,
       color_component r,
       color_component g,
       color_component b )

   unsigned int i;
   double pts[N_SEG+1][2];
   for (i=0; i <= N_SEG; ++i)
   {
       double t = (double)i / (double)N_SEG;
       double a = pow((1.0 - t), 2.0);
       double b = 2.0 * t * (1.0 - t);
       double c = pow(t, 2.0);
       double x = a * x1 + b * x2 + c * x3;
       double y = a * y1 + b * y2 + c * y3;
       pts[i][0] = x;
       pts[i][1] = y;
   }

  1. if 0
   /* draw only points */
   for (i=0; i <= N_SEG; ++i)
   {
       plot( pts[i][0],
             pts[i][1] );
   }
  1. else
   /* draw segments */

   {
       int j = i + 1;
       line( pts[i][0], pts[i][1],
             pts[j][0], pts[j][1] );
   }
  1. endif

}

  1. undef plot
  2. undef line</lang>

D

This solution uses two modules, from the Grayscale image and the Bresenham's line algorithm Tasks. <lang d>import grayscale_image, bitmap_bresenhams_line_algorithm;

struct Pt { int x, y; } // Signed.

void quadraticBezier(size_t nSegments=20, Color)

                   (Image!Color im, in Pt p1, in Pt p2, in Pt p3,
                    in Color color)

pure nothrow @nogc if (nSegments > 0) {

   Pt[nSegments + 1] points = void;
   foreach (immutable i, ref p; points) {
       immutable double t = i / double(nSegments),
                        a = (1.0 - t) ^^ 2,
                        b = 2.0 * t * (1.0 - t),
                        c = t ^^ 2;
       p = Pt(cast(typeof(Pt.x))(a * p1.x + b * p2.x + c * p3.x),
              cast(typeof(Pt.y))(a * p1.y + b * p2.y + c * p3.y));
   }
   foreach (immutable i, immutable p; points[0 .. $ - 1])
       im.drawLine(p.x, p.y, points[i + 1].x, points[i + 1].y, color);

}

void main() {

   auto im = new Image!Gray(20, 20);
   im.clear(Gray.white);
   im.quadraticBezier(Pt(1,10), Pt(25,27), Pt(15,2), Gray.black);
   im.textualShow();

Factor

Some code is shared with the cubic bezier task, but I put it here again to make it simple (hoping the two version don't diverge) Same remark as with cubic bezier, the points could go into a sequence to simplify stack shuffling <lang factor>USING: arrays kernel locals math math.functions

rosettacode.raster.storage sequences ;

IN: rosettacode.raster.line

! This gives a function

(quadratic-bezier) ( P0 P1 P2 -- bezier )
   [ :> x 
       1 x - sq P0 n*v
       2 1 x - x * * P1 n*v
       x sq P2 n*v
       v+ v+ ] ; inline

! Same code from the cubic bezier task

t-interval ( x -- interval )
   [ iota ] keep 1 - [ / ] curry map ;
points-to-lines ( seq -- seq )
   dup rest [ 2array ] 2map ;
draw-lines ( {R,G,B} points image -- )
   [ [ first2 ] dip draw-line ] curry with each ;
bezier-lines ( {R,G,B} P0 P1 P2 image -- )
   100 t-interval P0 P1 P2 (quadratic-bezier) map
   points-to-lines
   {R,G,B} swap image draw-lines ;

Fortran

    b = 2.0 * t * (1.0 - t)
    c = t**2.0
    x = a * p1%x + b * p2%x + c * p3%x 
    y = a * p1%y + b * p2%y + c * p3%y 
    pts(i,0) = x

TI-89 BASIC

Note: This example does not use a user-defined image type, since that would be particularly impractical, but rather draws on the calculator's graph screen, which has essentially the same operations as an implementation of Basic bitmap storage would, except for being black-and-white.

<lang ti89b>Define cubic(p1,p2,p3,segs) = Prgm

 Local i,t,u,prev,pt
 0 → pt
 For i,1,segs+1
   (i-1.0)/segs → t   © Decimal to avoid slow exact arithetic
   (1-t) → u
   pt → prev
   u^2*p1 + 2*t*u*p2 + t^2*p3 → pt
   If i>1 Then
     PxlLine floor(prev[1,1]), floor(prev[1,2]), floor(pt[1,1]), floor(pt[1,2])
   EndIf
 EndFor

EndPrgm</lang>

Vedit macro language

This implementation uses de Casteljau's algorithm to recursively split the Bezier curve into two smaller segments until the segment is short enough to be approximated with a straight line. The advantage of this method is that only integer calculations are needed, and the most complex operations are addition and shift right. (I have used multiplication and division here for clarity.)

Constant recursion depth is used here. Recursion depth of 5 seems to give accurate enough result in most situations. In real world implementations, some adaptive method is often used to decide when to stop recursion.

<lang vedit>// Daw a Cubic bezier curve // #20, #30 = Start point // #21, #31 = Control point 1 // #22, #32 = Control point 2 // #23, #33 = end point // #40 = depth of recursion

zkl

Uses the PPM class from http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Bitmap/Bresenham%27s_line_algorithm#zkl

Add this to the PPM class: <lang zkl> fcn qBezier(p0x,p0y, p1x,p1y, p2x,p2y, rgb, numPts=500){

     numPts.pump(Void,'wrap(t){ // B(t)
     	 t=t.toFloat()/numPts; t1:=(1.0 - t);

a:=t1*t1; b:=t*t1*2; c:=t*t; x:=a*p0x + b*p1x + c*p2x + 0.5; y:=a*p0y + b*p1y + c*p2y + 0.5; __sSet(rgb,x,y);

     });
  }</lang>

Doesn't use line segments, they don't seem like an improvement. <lang zkl>bitmap:=PPM(300,300,0xff|ff|ff); bitmap.qBezier(10,200, 250,30, 150,280, 0); bitmap.write(File("foo.ppm","wb"));</lang>

Output:

Same as the BBC BASIC image:
