RE: [Algorithms] Geodesic Sphere

[Robert D. <RD...@ac...>]

I don't think the geodesic is made of equilateral triangles ... in fact I
believe the only solid of vaguely spherical shape that you can make with
equilateral triangles is the icosahedron (20 tri's)

Apart from that I can't help, but I'd have thought a quick search on the web
would throw up several.
