= Line clipping algorithms
{wiki=Category:Line_clipping_algorithms}
Line clipping algorithms are techniques used in computer graphics to determine which portions of a line segment lie within a specified rectangular region, often referred to as a clipping window. The primary goal of these algorithms is to efficiently render only the visible part of line segments when displaying graphics on a screen or within a graphical user interface. Clipping is essential in reducing the amount of processed data and improving rendering performance.
