Sphere(double roc)

Creates a spherical curve with given radius of curvature

virtual double derivative(double r) const

This virtual function implements the derivative pure function declared in the ConicBase base abstract class.

Documentation inherited from base class:

Get curve derivative at specified distance from origin.

• r: distance from curve origin (0, 0)

virtual bool intersect(Math::Vector3 &point, const Math::VectorPair3 &ray) const

This virtual function implements the intersect pure function declared in the ConicBase base abstract class.

Documentation inherited from base class:

Get intersection point between curve and 3d ray. Return false if no intersection occurred

virtual void normal(Math::Vector3 &normal, const Math::Vector3 &point) const

This virtual function overrides the normal virtual function defined in the Rotational base abstract class.

Documentation inherited from base class:

Get normal to curve surface at specified point

virtual double sagitta(double r) const

This virtual function implements the sagitta pure function declared in the ConicBase base abstract class.

Documentation inherited from base class:

Get curve sagitta at specified distance from origin.

• r: distance from curve origin (0, 0)
