Explanation

A pixel is a point of light, one tiny dot on a raster display; though it has no structure, it is a building block and a graphics primitive. Lines, especially straight lines, constitute the basic building block of line graphs, bar and pie charts, graphs of mathematical functions, engineering drawings and architectural plans. Points and lines are the basic building blocks of computer graphics.
