Computing surface normal, floating point arithmetic Thanks for the reply! I asked around at some other locations, and several people pointed me to this algorithm: cs.haifa.ac.il/~gordon/plane.pdf, You might be interested in having a look. There's an additional explanation here: cs.berkeley.edu/~ug/slide/pipeline/assignments/… |

Computing surface normal, floating point arithmetic @ZevChonoles I wasn't sure if dls was correct in saying that it would be more appropriate for the Scientific Computing site, so I flagged it. |

Computing surface normal, floating point arithmetic The vertices are exported from a modeling program, and stored as 32 bit floats. I understand that error is unavoidable, but I was wondering if there is a method to ensure that the error is as small as possible - it seems that some choices ought to be better than others? |

Smallest enclosing cylinder for an irregular body Do you have an application in mind, and are you working in a particular language? |

Check if point on circle is in between two other points (Java) I'm somewhat confused about what exactly you want. Are you looking for a function that will take in 3 points which are known to be on the circle, and classify one of them by its position relative to the other two? Is this in $\mathbb{R^2}$ or $\mathbb{R^3}$? Are they in rectangular or polar coordinates? |
