public class Supershape
extends ImplicitVolume

This class represents the geometry of a supershape. In local object coordinates, its center is the origin, its radius is 1. An implementation of Johan Gielis's Superformula which was published in the American Journal of Botany 90(3): 333–338. 2003.

Description copied from interface: Volume

Computes the extent of this volume, i.e., an axis-aligned bounding box between min and max.

Specified by:

getExtent in interface Volume

Overrides:

getExtent in class ImplicitVolume

Parameters:

min - minimum coordinates of bounding box are placed in here

max - maximum coordinates of bounding box are placed in here

temp - has to be provided by the invoker, may be used in implementations
