-## Introduction
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-OpenGL Mathematics (GLM) is a C++ mathematics library for graphics C++ programs based on the [*OpenGL Shading Language*](http://www.opengl.org/registry/) (GLSL) specifications.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-GLM provides classes and functions designed and implemented with the same naming conventions and functionalities than GLSL so that when a programmer knows GLSL, he knows GLM as well which makes it really easy
|
|
|
-to use.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-This project isn't limited to GLSL features. An extension system, based on the GLSL extension conventions, provides extended capabilities: matrix transformations, quaternions, data packing, random numbers,
|
|
|
-noise, etc...
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-This library works perfectly with [*OpenGL*](http://www.opengl.org) but it also ensures interoperability with other third party libraries and SDK. It is a good candidate for software rendering (raytracing /
|
|
|
-rasterisation), image processing, physic simulations and any development context that requires a simple and convenient mathematics library.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-GLM is written in C++98 but can take advantage of C++11 when supported by the compiler. It is a platform independent library with no dependence and it officially supports the following compilers:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-* [Apple Clang](https://developer.apple.com/Library/mac/documentation/CompilerTools/Conceptual/LLVMCompilerOverview/index.html) 5.0 and higher\
|
|
|
-* [GCC](http://gcc.gnu.org/) 4.6 and higher
|
|
|
-* [Intel C++ Composer](https://software.intel.com/en-us/intel-compilers) XE 2013 and higher\
|
|
|
-* [LLVM](http://llvm.org/) 3.2 and higher
|
|
|
-* [Visual C++](http://www.visualstudio.com/) 2010 and higher
|
|
|
-* [CUDA](https://developer.nvidia.com/about-cuda) 4.0 and higher (experimental)
|
|
|
-* Any conform C++98 or C++11 compiler
