What about those of us without 3D displays? (What about those of us with them? :-)) What are we supposed to actually do here? If we're projecting onto a surface, should that projection be static or permit rotation of the object or motion of the field of view? What is the output supposed to look like (attach a screenshot…) –[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] 13:18, 14 December 2010 (UTC) |

The task is to draw a cuboid within the language capabilities. A 3D dislay is not required here. The cubiod can be represented graphically, or in ascii art, depending on the language capabilities. As long as we have three faces visible, then I think that fulfils the criteria of being a cuboid. Either static or rotational projection is acceptable for this task. The examples provided so far seem to fulfil this criteria. |

Yeah, that looked good. I moved that to a separate task, because it went beyond drawing of a cuboid. |

What about those of us without 3D displays? (What about those of us with them? :-)) What are we supposed to actually do here? If we're projecting onto a surface, should that projection be static or permit rotation of the object or motion of the field of view? What is the output supposed to look like (attach a screenshot…) –Donal Fellows 13:18, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

- Because of the textual nature of RC and the web in general, I suggest the task be "render (some object) as three dimensional ASCII art".
- I think it'd be fun if (some object) be (your language's name)
but that's because we Jers happen to have such a solution already, that I would like to advertise. (Also because "J" looks cool in 3D. :)
