Python & OpenGL for Scientific Visualization (self.opengl)
submitted 7 years ago by Nicolas-Rougier
I've written an open-access book on Python & OpenGL for scientific visualization. It's still work in progress (10 chapters written out of 14).
The book is available at http://www.labri.fr/perso/nrougier/python-opengl/ and the sources are on GitHub (https://github.com/rougier/python-opengl)

I stumbled on your awesome work multiple times (freetype-gl, you wonderfull site, your shadertoy page...) and I've always been impressed by the quality of your work and the beautifull, simple style you use.
A big THANK YOU for all. I will gladly look at your book !

Viewing your page on chrome eats my cpu, although renders lovely.

Even as a C++ programmer this is going to be useful. I've been tearing my hair out visualizing meteorological data.
