====== PyOpenGL + PyGame ======

These are notes from a graphics course that I taught many years ago.  Hopefully, they will be useful for someone.  They focus on Python 2.7, which is now deprecated.  However, it is likely that some of this will still translate to Python 3.

----

For the remainder of these notes, we will be working with [[http://pyopengl.sourceforge.net/index.html|PyOpenGL]].
====== Installation ======
We assume that you currently have a working installation of Python 2.7 and the ability to install packages via //pip// or //easy_install//.  You will need to install the following packages **__in the order they are listed__**:
<code>
NumPy
PyGame
PyOpenGL
PyOpenGL_accelerate
PyDispatcher
PyVRML97
OpenGLContext
</code>
