<para>
The texture minifying function is used whenever the pixel being textured
maps to an area greater than one texture element.
There are six defined minifying functions.
Two of them use the nearest one or nearest four texture elements
to compute the texture value.
The other four use mipmaps.

A mipmap is an ordered set of arrays representing the same image
at progressively lower resolutions.

As more texture elements are sampled in the minification process,
fewer aliasing artifacts will be apparent.
While the <constant>GL_NEAREST</constant> and <constant>GL_LINEAR</constant> minification functions can be
faster than the other four,
they sample only one or four texture elements to determine the texture value
of the pixel being rendered and can produce moire patterns
or ragged transitions.
The initial value of <constant>GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER</constant> is
<constant>GL_NEAREST_MIPMAP_LINEAR</constant>.

The texture magnification function is used when the pixel being textured
maps to an area less than or equal to one texture element.
It sets the texture magnification function to either <constant>GL_NEAREST</constant>
or <constant>GL_LINEAR</constant> (see below). <constant>GL_NEAREST</constant> is generally faster
than <constant>GL_LINEAR</constant>,
but it can produce textured images with sharper edges
because the transition between texture elements is not as smooth.
The initial value of <constant>GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER</constant> is <constant>GL_LINEAR</constant>.

<para>
If a sampler object is bound to a texture unit and that unit is used to sample from a texture, the parameters in the sampler
are used to sample from the texture, rather than the equivalent parameters in the texture object bound to that unit. This
introduces the possibility of sampling from the same texture object with different sets of sampler state, which may lead to
a condition where a texture is <emphasis>incomplete</emphasis> with respect to one sampler object and not with respect to
another. Thus, completeness can be considered a function of a sampler object and a texture object bound to a single
texture unit, rather than a property of the texture object itself.
