~Rasterizing: Verb 1. rasterize - to convert an image into pixels

(n.) Rasterization

Rasterization is the process by which a primitive is converted to a two-dimensional image. Each point of this image contains such information as color and depth. Thus, rasterizing a primitive consists of two parts. The first is to determine which squares of an integer grid in window coordinates are occupied by the primitive. The second is assigning a color and a depth value to each such square. source: (glspec1.1) (http://www.opengl.org/documentation/specs/version1.1/glspec1.1/node41.html)
