I haven't had as much chance as I would like in a while, so
I figured I would take a quick shot at a cylinder example.
I did not write comments, but I think the code is fairly simple.
It is crude, but it works.
from visual import *
from Numeric import *
length = 3.0
radius = 1.0
number_of_steps_length = 30
number_of_angle_steps = 30
length_step = length / number_of_steps_length
angle_step = 2.0 * 3.1415926 / number_of_angle_steps
scene = display(title='Cylinder',
width=500, height=500, center=(0,0,0), range=(5,5,5))
for i in xrange(0,number_of_steps_length):
x1 = i * length_step
x2 = (i + 1) * length_step
for j in xrange(0,number_of_angle_steps):
theta = j * angle_step
y1 = radius * sin(theta)
z1 = radius * cos(theta)
y2 = radius * sin(theta + angle_step)
z2 = radius * cos(theta + angle_step)
convex(pos = [(x1,y1,z1),(x1,y2,z2),(x2,y1,z1),(x2,y2,z2)], color =
color.red)
Have fun, you just GOTTA love this tool!
