NAME

glutSolidSierpinskiSponge - Draw a solid Spierspinski's sponge.

LIBRARY

OpenGLUT - geometry

SYNOPSIS

In openglut.h Ft void Fn glutSolidSierpinskiSponge int num_levels const GLdouble offset[ 3 ] GLdouble scale

PARAMETERS

Bf Em
num_levels Ef
Recursive depth.

Bf Em
offset Ef
Location vector.

Bf Em
scale Ef
Relative size.

DESCRIPTION

This function recursively draws a few levels of a solid-shaded Sierpinski's Sponge. If Bf Sy
num_levels Ef
is 0, draws 1 tetrahedron. The Bf Sy
offset Ef
is a translation. The Bf Sy
z Ef
axis is normal to the base. The sponge is centered at the origin.

CAVEATS

Runtime is exponential in Bf Sy
num_levels Ef
.

TODO

Consider removing the Bf Sy
offset Ef
parameter from the API (use a helper function).
