19 <code class="function">glClearBufferData</code> fills the entirety of a buffer object's
20 data store with data from client memory. Data, initially supplied in a format
21 specified by <em class="parameter"><code>format</code></em> in data type <em class="parameter"><code>type</code></em> is
22 read from the memory address given by <em class="parameter"><code>data</code></em> and converted into
23 the internal representation given by <em class="parameter"><code>internalforamt</code></em>.
24 This converted data is then replicated throughout the buffer object's
25 data store.
26 </p><p>
27 If <em class="parameter"><code>data</code></em> is NULL, then the buffer's data store
28 is filled with zeros.
