Generative Modelling Language

This article is about computer graphics and generative computer programming. For generative models of Markov decision processes, see Markov decision process § Simulator models. For generative models in the context of statistical classification, see Generative model. For Generative Artificial Intelligence (Generative A.I.) models/systems, see Generative artificial intelligence.

Generative Modelling Language (GML) in computer graphics and generative computer programming is a very simple programming language for the concise description of complex 3D shapes. It follows the "Generative Modelling" paradigm, where complex datasets are represented by "lists of operations" rather than by lists of objects, which is for instance the case in a relational database.
