Bresenham's Line Algorithm is a way of drawing a line segment onto a square grid. It is especially useful for roguelikes due to their cellular nature. A detailed explanation of the algorithm can be found here.
In libtcod it is accessible using line(x1, y1, x2, y2, callback). Below are several hand-coded implementations in various languages.
C#
Here is a simple way of using the algorithm in C# with delegates.
// Author: Jason Morley (Source: http://www.morleydev.co.uk/blog/2010/11/18/generic-bresenhams-line-algorithm-in-visual-basic-net/)
using System;
namespace Bresenhams
{
/// <summary>
/// The Bresenham algorithm collection
/// </summary>
public static class Algorithms
{
private static void Swap<T>(ref T lhs, ref T rhs) { T temp; temp = lhs; lhs = rhs; rhs = temp; }
/// <summary>
/// The plot function delegate
/// </summary>
/// <param name="x">The x co-ord being plotted</param>
/// <param name="y">The y co-ord being plotted</param>
/// <returns>True to continue, false to stop the algorithm</returns>
public delegate bool PlotFunction(int x, int y);
/// <summary>

/// <param name="x1">The end x</param>
/// <param name="y1">The end y</param>
/// <param name="plot">The plotting function (if this returns false, the algorithm stops early)</param>
public static void Line(int x0, int y0, int x1, int y1, PlotFunction plot)
{
bool steep = Math.Abs(y1 - y0) > Math.Abs(x1 - x0);
if (steep) { Swap<int>(ref x0, ref y0); Swap<int>(ref x1, ref y1); }
if (x0 > x1) { Swap<int>(ref x0, ref x1); Swap<int>(ref y0, ref y1); }
int dX = (x1 - x0), dY = Math.Abs(y1 - y0), err = (dX / 2), ystep = (y0 < y1 ? 1 : -1), y = y0;
for (int x = x0; x <= x1; ++x)
{
if (!(steep ? plot(y, x) : plot(x, y))) return;
err = err - dY;
if (err < 0) { y += ystep; err += dX; }
}
}
}
}
C++
Here's a C++ version; plot() draws a "dot" at (x, y):
#include <cstdlib>
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

int const x2,
int const y2)
{
int delta_x(x2 - x1);
// if x1 == x2, then it does not matter what we set here
signed char const ix((delta_x > 0) - (delta_x < 0));
delta_x = std::abs(delta_x) << 1;
int delta_y(y2 - y1);
// if y1 == y2, then it does not matter what we set here
signed char const iy((delta_y > 0) - (delta_y < 0));
delta_y = std::abs(delta_y) << 1;
plot(x1, y1);
if (delta_x >= delta_y)
{
// error may go below zero
int error(delta_y - (delta_x >> 1));
while (x1 != x2)
{
// reduce error, while taking into account the corner case of error == 0
if ((error > 0) || (!error && (ix > 0)))
{
error -= delta_x;

Lua
Here's a Lua port:
function bresenham(x1, y1, x2, y2)
delta_x = x2 - x1
ix = delta_x > 0 and 1 or -1
delta_x = 2 * math.abs(delta_x)
delta_y = y2 - y1
iy = delta_y > 0 and 1 or -1
delta_y = 2 * math.abs(delta_y)
plot(x1, y1)
if delta_x >= delta_y then
error = delta_y - delta_x / 2
while x1 ~= x2 do
if (error > 0) or ((error == 0) and (ix > 0)) then
error = error - delta_x
y1 = y1 + iy
end
error = error + delta_y
x1 = x1 + ix
plot(x1, y1)
end
else
error = delta_x - delta_y / 2
while y1 ~= y2 do
if (error > 0) or ((error == 0) and (iy > 0)) then
error = error - delta_y
x1 = x1 + ix
end
error = error + delta_x
y1 = y1 + iy
plot(x1, y1)
end
end
end
Python
This Python version returns a list of (x, y) tuples. It was converted from the Ruby version below, but also reverses the list to begin with the first coordinates.
def get_line(start, end):
"""Bresenham's Line Algorithm

"""
# Setup initial conditions
x1, y1 = start
x2, y2 = end
dx = x2 - x1

is_steep = abs(dy) > abs(dx)

# Reverse the list if the coordinates were swapped

Ruby
Here's a Ruby version, it returns an array of points, each being a hash with 2 elements (x and y).
def get_line(x0,x1,y0,y1)
points = []
steep = ((y1-y0).abs) > ((x1-x0).abs)
if steep
x0,y0 = y0,x0
x1,y1 = y1,x1
end

x0,x1 = x1,x0
y0,y1 = y1,y0
end
deltax = x1-x0
deltay = (y1-y0).abs
error = (deltax / 2).to_i
y = y0
ystep = nil
if y0 < y1
ystep = 1
else
ystep = -1
end
for x in x0..x1
if steep
points << {:x => y, :y => x}
else
points << {:x => x, :y => y}
end
error -= deltay
if error < 0
y += ystep
error += deltax
end
end
return points

VB.NET
Here is a generic way of using the algorithm in VB.NET using delegates.

Haskell
A slightly verbose version in Haskell. See the discussion page for a variant one line shorter, but IMHO less readable. I bet other version, more readable and more succinct, can be written.

ActionScript
Here's an ActionScript implementation that creates a Line object with an array of points.
package
{
import flash.geom.Point;
public class Line
{
public var points:Array = [];
public function Line(x0:int, y0:int, x1:int, y1:int) {
calculate(x0, y0, x1, y1);
}
private function calculate(x0:int, y0:int, x1:int, y1:int):void {
var dx:int = Math.abs(x1 - x0);
var dy:int = Math.abs(y1 - y0);
var sx:int = x0 < x1 ? 1 : -1;
var sy:int = y0 < y1 ? 1 : -1;
var err:int = dx - dy;
while (true){
points.push(new Point(x0, y0));
if (x0==x1 && y0==y1)
break;
var e2:int = err * 2;
if (e2 > -dx) {
err -= dy;
x0 += sx;
}
if (e2 < dx){
err += dx;
y0 += sy;
}
}
}
}
}
Go
This is a translation for golang from the Python example above, it returns a slice to a struct that contains two ints.
type Vector2i struct {
X, Y int
}
func getLine(pos1, pos2 Vector2i) (points []Vector2i) {
x1, y1 := pos1.X, pos1.Y
x2, y2 := pos2.X, pos2.Y
isSteep := abs(y2-y1) > abs(x2-x1)
if isSteep {
x1, y1 = y1, x1
x2, y2 = y2, x2
}
reversed := false
if x1 > x2 {
x1, x2 = x2, x1
y1, y2 = y2, y1
reversed = true
}
deltaX := x2 - x1
deltaY := abs(y2 - y1)
err := deltaX / 2
y := y1
var ystep int
if y1 < y2 {
ystep = 1
} else {
ystep = -1
}
for x := x1; x < x2+1; x++ {
if isSteep {
points = append(points, Vector2i{y, x})
} else {
points = append(points, Vector2i{x, y})
}
err -= deltaY
if err < 0 {
y += ystep
err += deltaX
}
}
if reversed {
//Reverse the slice
for i, j := 0, len(points)-1; i < j; i, j = i+1, j-1 {
points[i], points[j] = points[j], points[i]
}
}
return
}
func abs(x int) int {
switch {
case x < 0:
return -x
case x == 0:
return 0
}
return x
}
JavaScript
Adapted from the C# example above, but improved so line is drawn in original direction. Demo here: [1].
function drawline(x0,y0,x1,y1){
var tmp;
var steep = Math.abs(y1-y0) > Math.abs(x1-x0);
if(steep){
//swap x0,y0
tmp=x0; x0=y0; y0=tmp;
//swap x1,y1
tmp=x1; x1=y1; y1=tmp;
}
var sign = 1;
if(x0>x1){
sign = -1;
x0 *= -1;
x1 *= -1;
}
var dx = x1-x0;
var dy = Math.abs(y1-y0);
var err = ((dx/2));
var ystep = y0 < y1 ? 1:-1;
var y = y0;
for(var x=x0;x<=x1;x++){
if(!(steep ? plot(y,sign*x) : plot(sign*x,y))) return;
err = (err - dy);
if(err < 0){
y+=ystep;
err+=dx;
}
}
}

This is a translation for Rust from the Go example above, it returns a Vec of structs that contains two ints. (tested rustc ver 1.14.0)
