The portion left outside the region of the
window in Computer Graphics is called the
Clipped Part.
The process of display inside image of the
window is called Clipping.
The only part of the scene that shows up on
the screen is what is inside the clipping
window.
Sometimes the clipping window is
suggested to as the world window or the
viewing window.

Graphics packages allow us also to control the
placement within the display window using
another “window” called the viewport.
Objects inside the clipping window are mapped
to the viewport, and it is the viewport that is
then positioned within the display window.
clipping window selects what we want to see;
the viewport indicates where it is to be viewed
on the output device.
By changing the position of a viewport, we can
view objects at different positions on the
display area of an output device.

The mapping of a two-dimensional, world-coordinate scene
description to device coordinates is called a two-dimensional
viewing transformation.
This transformation is simply referred to as the window-to-
viewport transformation or the windowing transformation.
In analogy with three-dimensional viewing, we can describe
the steps for two-dimensional viewing as indicated in Figure
2.

Sutherland-Hodgman Polygon :
Clipping of polygon is done starting
from Lift Clipper,Right Clipper, Bottom Clipper
and Top Clipper. At each step, a new sequence
of output vertices is generated and passed to
the next window boundary clipper.
