I've just about finished working on the analysis functions for basic primitives with explicit formulae for their surface areas and volumes, the ones remaining are more exotic like ars, arbn or bot, or cannot be computed exactly because they involve ellipses or hyperbola. There are a number of good approximation formulas for these inexact primitives though, is there any reason not to implement these inexact functions?
