Asymptote (Vector Graphics Language)
Getting Started - Basics - Reference - Examples - How to - Macros and Packages - Advanced Asymptote - Help Useful functions - CSE5 Package

To get started using Asymptote, it's a good idea to go through this guide in the following steps:

Follow the instructions on the Downloads and Installation page
Once you have downloaded and installed everything, you may wish to try out interactive mode and optionally configure TeXnicCenter to use Asymptote, as described on the Interactive Mode page
Look over Basics and skim through Reference or Examples to learn the basics of Asymptote coding
Make a bunch of images!

If you wish to go on and become an Asymptote master, the sections on Advanced Configuration, Logical Operators and Loops, and Macros and Packages are essential.

If you're a problem solver, be sure to check out the Olympiad package!
