GLUTSOLIDRHOMBICDODECAHEDRON(3)

πŸ’– glutSolidRhombicDodecahedron β€” like, the GLUT page for the solid rhombic dodecahedron bestie πŸ’–

okay so this is glutSolidRhombicDodecahedron, part of the OpenGLUT manual (section 3, geometry girly). no cap, it's a whole page about ONE (1) shape and honestly? she deserves it. πŸ’…


✨ NAME ✨

glutSolidRhombicDodecahedron β€” draws a solid rhombic dodecahedron. that's it. that's the whole job. iconic. πŸŽ€


πŸ“š LIBRARY πŸ“š

OpenGLUT β€” the geometry department, bestie. shapes and vibes only. πŸ¦‹


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <openglut.h>

void
glutSolidRhombicDodecahedron(void);

no arguments. no return value. she takes nothing and gives you a whole polyhedron. main character energy fr fr. πŸ‘‘


πŸ’… DESCRIPTION πŸ’…

okay so here's the tea: this function draws a solid-shaded dodecahedron. and before you come for me β€” yes, dodecahedron, but make it rhombic. her facets are rhombic, and her vertices sit at unit radius. so every vertex is exactly one unit away from the center, periodt. ✨

and the way that no facet lies normal to any coordinate axes? that's not a bug, that's a design choice. she is tilted, she is angled, she is not aligned with your boring little x, y, and z axes. we love a shape that refuses to be basic. 😌

oh and the polyhedron is centered at the origin. (0, 0, 0). home. 🏠


πŸ‘€ SEE ALSO πŸ‘€


ngl bestie, if you were looking for the wireframe version you're in the wrong group chat β€” go check the SEE ALSO list above. this page is solid-only. 🫢

and that's the whole page!! brought to you by OpenGLUT (the library that raised her), date-stamped UNDATED because time is a construct and this geometry is eternal, under the title UNTITLED() β€” which is honestly so mysterious of her. πŸ˜­πŸ’– stay rhombic, stay solid, stay centered at the origin. bye bestie!! 🧚🌸πŸ’
