base Ef
Cone radius at the base in the xy plane.

Bf Em
height Ef
Height of cone in positive z direction.

Bf Em
slices Ef
The number of divisions around the z axis. (latitudal)

Bf Em
stacks Ef
The number of divisions along the z axis. (longitudal)

The glutWireCone() function draws a wireframe cone with a base in the xy plane oriented in positive z.

The number of line segments representing the conical surface is proportional to (slices*stacks).
