Hi,
Matt S. has left the following comment at Implement a primitive volume
function ... for hyperboloids of one sheet (HYP)
http://www.google-melange.com/gci/task/view/google/gci2012/8009213:
I don't think this will work...
Aside from the fact that the code is not formatted correctly, I think what
you have attempted to do is implement the formula given here:
http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Hyperboloid.html
correct? If so, this will not work. The volume formula there is only for a
hyperboloid with a circular cross section. Any volume function for a hyp
primitive must work with an elliptical hyperboloid:
http://mathworld.wolfram.com/EllipticHyperboloid.html
as the parameter "B" in the hyp primitive defines the ratio of the major to
minor axis of the ellipse.
Keep at it!
