circle

Syntax

#include <graphics.h>
void circle(int x, int y, int radius);

Description

circle draws a circle in the current drawing color with its center at (x,y) and the radius given by radius.

The linestyle parameter does not affect arcs, circles, ellipses, or pie slices. Only the thickness parameter is used.

If your circles are not perfectly round, adjust the aspect ratio.

Return Value

None.

   /* initialize graphics and local variables */

   /* read result of initialization */
   errorcode = graphresult();
   if (errorcode != grOk) {   /* an error occurred */
      printf("Graphics error: %s\n", grapherrormsg(errorcode));

      printf("Press any key to halt:");
      getch();
      exit(1);               /* terminate with an error code */
