Draw 3d cube using openGL

DrRakha

Drawing 3D cube using specified vertices for its coordinate. In this example we define the six surfaces of the 3d cube. We use glBegin(GL_QUADS) and glEnd(). Animation (Transformation 3D) and different color at each surface.

Code:

#include <GL\glut.h>
 GLfloat xRotated, yRotated, zRotated;
void init(void)
{
glClearColor(0,0,0,0);
 
}

void DrawCube(void)
{

     glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);
    // clear the drawing buffer.
    glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
   glLoadIdentity();
        glTranslatef(0.0,0.0,-10.5);
    glRotatef(xRotated,1.0,0.0,0.0);
    // rotation about Y axis
    glRotatef(yRotated,0.0,1.0,0.0);
    // rotation about Z axis
    glRotatef(zRotated,0.0,0.0,1.0);
  glBegin(GL_QUADS);        // Draw The Cube Using quads
    glColor3f(0.0f,1.0f,0.0f);    // Color Blue
    glVertex3f( 1.0f, 1.0f,-1.0f);    // Top Right Of The Quad (Top)
    glVertex3f(-1.0f, 1.0f,-1.0f);    // Top Left Of The Quad (Top)
    glVertex3f(-1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);    // Bottom Left Of The Quad (Top)
    glVertex3f( 1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);    // Bottom Right Of The Quad (Top)
    glColor3f(1.0f,0.5f,0.0f);    // Color Orange
    glVertex3f( 1.0f,-1.0f, 1.0f);    // Top Right Of The Quad (Bottom)
    glVertex3f(-1.0f,-1.0f, 1.0f);    // Top Left Of The Quad (Bottom)
    glVertex3f(-1.0f,-1.0f,-1.0f);    // Bottom Left Of The Quad (Bottom)
    glVertex3f( 1.0f,-1.0f,-1.0f);    // Bottom Right Of The Quad (Bottom)
    glColor3f(1.0f,0.0f,0.0f);    // Color Red    
    glVertex3f( 1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);    // Top Right Of The Quad (Front)
    glVertex3f(-1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);    // Top Left Of The Quad (Front)
    glVertex3f(-1.0f,-1.0f, 1.0f);    // Bottom Left Of The Quad (Front)
    glVertex3f( 1.0f,-1.0f, 1.0f);    // Bottom Right Of The Quad (Front)
    glColor3f(1.0f,1.0f,0.0f);    // Color Yellow
    glVertex3f( 1.0f,-1.0f,-1.0f);    // Top Right Of The Quad (Back)
    glVertex3f(-1.0f,-1.0f,-1.0f);    // Top Left Of The Quad (Back)
    glVertex3f(-1.0f, 1.0f,-1.0f);    // Bottom Left Of The Quad (Back)
    glVertex3f( 1.0f, 1.0f,-1.0f);    // Bottom Right Of The Quad (Back)
    glColor3f(0.0f,0.0f,1.0f);    // Color Blue
