    When it comes to openGL what is the difference between:
    glBegin(GL_QUADS);
    glBegin(GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP);

    What is the D3D equivelants?

    Some of these OpenGL tutorials read and render the vertices in the same function....This is stupid.

    TriangleList with indices means 3 points for each triangle right?
    TriangleStrip with indices means 4 points for each quad right?
    LineList/Strip is the same deal, cept it shows wireframe.

    Explain trianglefan?
