#DAY 1, INTRODUCTION

AutoCAD Tutorial  #Day 1 INTRODUCTION  Welcome to AutoCAD tutorial ,                       Let us discuss about the AutoCAD Software, By using AutoCAD Software helps to make a project in 2D and 3D models. INTRODUCTION                                 AutoCAD is a Commercial Computer-Aided Design (CAD) and drafting software application.it was first released in December 1982,  as a d esktop app running on  microcomputers   with internal  graphic control.   Before AutoCAD was introduced, most commercial CAD programs ran on  mainframe computers   or  minicomputers , with each CAD operator (user) working at a separate  graphic terminals.  Since 2010, AutoCAD was released as a  mobile   and  web app  as well, marketed as AutoCAD 360. AutoCAD is used in the industry, by architects, project managers, engineers, graphic designers, city planners and other professionals. It was supported by 750 training centers worldwide in 1994.
