{{Short description|Algorithm
The '''Sutherland–Hodgman algorithm''' is an [[algorithm]] used for [[Clipping (computer graphics)|clipping]] [[polygon]]s. It works by extending each line of the [[convex polygon|convex]] ''clip polygon'' in turn and selecting only vertices from the ''subject polygon'' that are on the visible side.
