     Due to an unfortunate accident, I won't be able make it to the lab for a while. If
you need any help regarding to the project, you can send me an e-mail and we can
discuss further through messenger. Thanks for your understanding!

     OpenGl slides and OpenGL example uploaded. If you need help with OpenGL
functions, you may be interested in "OpenGL Functions" link. It explains the purpose
of each function and how to use them in details.
