I was exploring the ways in which we can implement the idea. My proposed approach is as under: Suppose we make an rcc and cut it with plane parallel to horizontal axis. On seeing from top, we see a circle. Data like radius of rcc (and so of circle) etc., is already stored in database file during object creation. What we need to do is just retrieve such information from database file and write there. If rcc is inclined at some angle, then the intersection with cutting plane will result in ellipse. The question is how we can recognize such patterns (like circle or ellipse in above example) obtained after cutting with plane and seeing from top? -- Harmanpreet Singh Blog: http://singhharman.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Try New Relic Now & We'll Send You this Cool Shirt New Relic is the only SaaS-based application performance monitoring service that delivers powerful full stack analytics.
