Graphics in computing refers to the visual representation of information and data using images, illustrations, and animations on a computer display. Graphics are an essential component of modern computing, as they are used for a wide range of applications, such as gaming, video editing, digital art, and scientific simulations.
Graphics in computing can be created using various software and programming languages, such as Adobe Photoshop, GIMP, Autodesk Maya, and JavaScript. They can also be generated by specialized hardware components, such as graphics cards, which are designed to process and render 3D graphics and images.
The quality and speed of graphics processing in a computer are determined by the graphics processing unit (GPU), which is responsible for rendering and displaying images and videos on a computer display. The GPU is specifically designed to handle complex graphical operations, such as texture mapping, lighting, and shading, and can greatly improve the performance of visually-intensive applications.
