# Computer Graphics

Total days if complete newbie and never started, don’t know anything: 4 days

If you have never started reading computer graphics, it will take you at a normal pace:
- 4 days to understand the subject and its individual topics  
- 1 day for revision (aim to revise 3 times before the exam)  
- 0.5 days error adjustment for fatigue and distractions  

**Study plan:**
- Watch introductory videos in Chapter 1 (0.5 days)  
- Finish Chapters 2 & 3 (1 day)  
- Finish Chapters 4 & 5 (1 day)  
- Proceed to Chapters 6, 7 & 8 (1 day)  
- Read Chapter 9 (0.5 days)  
- Revision of individual topics (1 day)  

> **Tip:** First skim all topic names for 5 minutes, then watch YouTube videos for each chapter, and finally read from the book for deeper understanding.  
> **Recommended book:** *System Inception*
