there is no limit to the number of vertices that can be defined

Lines,

triangles,

quadrilaterals,

and polygons that are incompletely specified are not drawn.
|

Incomplete specification results when either too few vertices are
|

provided to specify even a single primitive or when an incorrect multiple
|

|
|
of vertices is specified. The incomplete primitive is ignored; the rest are drawn.

2 for a line,

3 for a triangle,

4 for a quadrilateral,
