FdF
FdF is a project in which we convert a file with a grid of height values into a 3d wireframe using a simple graphics library called MiniLibX.

Well, if you are here it means that you have survived GNL and maybe already push swap... FdF is much less bad than these two projects. You will have to go back to math, but nothing too complicated, don't worry
Of course! FdF is the abbreviation of "Fil de Fer", which means "Wireframe" in French. The FdF project is one of the first graphics projects. The goal of the FdF project is to create a software that can read a file containing information about a 3D object and display it as a wireframe model on the screen.
You have to go from a representation like this:
Where the rows represent the x-axis, the columns the y-axis and the values the z-axis (the altitude).
To a graphic representation like this:
The subject is simple and clear. In practice it is a bit more complicated than that because many new concepts are introduced. But by separating each step and looking at one element after the other, you will be able to do this project very easily.
To give you an idea, here is what the final project should look like:
Well, the guy is a genius and he did more things than requested in the project - but you get the general idea :-)
This project will have more pages than the others. There will be a theoretical part about the new things you have to learn in this project (and an explanation of all the new functions), a mathematical part to understand the transformation process and a practical part, where you will code FdF thanks to everything you will have learned and to checklists we will define.
Okay, let's get to the heart of the matter now
