11.4 glutSolidTorus, glutWireTorus

  glutSolidTorus and   glutWireTorus render a solid or wireframe torus (doughnut) respectively.

Usage

void glutSolidTorus(GLdouble innerRadius,
                    GLdouble outerRadius,
                    GLint nsides, GLint rings);
void glutWireTorus(GLdouble innerRadius,
                   GLdouble outerRadius,
                   GLint nsides, GLint rings);
innerRadius
Inner radius of the torus.
outerRadius
Outer radius of the torus.
nsides
Number of sides for each radial section.
rings
Number of radial divisions for the torus.

Description

glutSolidTorus and glutWireTorus render a solid or wireframe torus (doughnut) respectively centered at the modeling coordinates origin whose axis is aligned with the Z axis.
