Detailed Description

A Shape is a Volume represents an 3D solid.

The value of the Shape at each point in space is the distance to the surface. The distance is negative if the point is inside the solid. For Shape specializations that cannot compute the distance to the surface, the value will be 1.0 outside and -1.0 inside the solid.

void sc::Shape::compute (  )  [virtual]

Recompute at least the results that have compute true and are not already computed.

This should only be called by Result's members.

Implements sc::Volume.

int sc::Shape::value_implemented (  )  const [virtual]

Information about the availability of values, gradients, and hessians.

Reimplemented from sc::Function.
