Function: intlc

Syntax

intlc (<point1>,<point2>,<point3>, <num>,{<point4>})

Type

point

Returns

The intersection of a line and a circle. Two values are returned. The line and circle should be in the same 3-D plane.

Parameters

• <point1>
  The line start point.

• <point2>
  The line finish point.

• <point3>
  The circle center.

• <num>
  The circle radius.

• <point4>
  The normal to the plane of the circle. If omitted, up (0,0,1) is assumed.

If the intersection cannot be computed, the value of <point1> is returned.

Examples

point inxs[2] = intlc(p1,p2,center,250)

point inxs[2] = intlc(p1,p2,center,250,norm)
