βουλειανή Ένωση / Ένωση του Μπουλ Explanation: George Boole=Άγγλος μαθηματικός (1815-1864) Boolean Union A boolean union of two primitives is analogous to 'merging' them together, and treating them as a single object. This graphic depicts a boolean union: The red cube and the blue sphere are combined using the CSG union operator to create a single object, with the appearance of both primitives merged together. Some software distinguishes the Union from a different operator, Merge, which does the union in such a way that the surfaces inside the merged region are not rendered. This would be desirable in cases where the objects are transparent, and the union should be treated as a single solid object. In particular, the POV-Ray graphics package implements this concept. http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructive_Solid_Geometry -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-07-26 15:03:31 (GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- Βίκυ, τα επίθετα (όπως \"ελληνική τηλεόραση\") μπαίνουν με μικρό.
