This page introduce a pretty cool LaTeX package: TikZ.
TikZ— It can be used to draw graphics directly with TeX commands in Latex.
TikZ and PGF are TeX packages for creating graphics programmatically. TikZ is build on top of PGF and allows you to create sophisticated graphics in a rather intuitive and easy manner.
It comes with very good documentation and an extensive collection of examples: http://www.texample.net/tikz/ (Show all examples | Show in chronological order)
