i want to know what is the role of graphics in c
is it ok to spend a lot of time on learning c graphic or to start the
new language like JAVA.

C is a good language for fundamental graphics primitives (e.g.
calculation of antialiased line data or hidden surface removal). Java
has graphics primitives built into the language itself.

In order to render graphics primitives using the C language, you must
use another standard such as PHIGS or a known extension API like
DirectX or OpenGL.

Probably, news:comp.graphics.algorithms is a better forum for focused
answers.
