asy-faq: Question 1

 
 Question 1.1.  What is Asymptote?
 
 Asymptote is a vector graphics language designed for technical graphics,
 inspired by MetaPost but with IEEE floating-point numerics, native
 three-dimensional graphics, Grayscale/RGB/CMYK colourspaces, and a
 C++-like syntax. Unlike MetaPost, it natively supports multiple-segment
 paths (and hence regions other than simply connected ones), tiling
 patterns, Gouraud  shading, tensor patch shading, and PostScript images.
