3D Implicit function fillout
Nov 30th, 2009, 1:20pm  
Hello there,

I'm pretty new to Processing but i admint I just LOVE it! Cheesy
I've done some nice 2D mathematical implementations (function draw, bezier).
Now, when I realized that Processing is for 3D too, I'm thinking about creating a 3 dimensional f(x,y,z) function fill-out implementation. My idea is to fill out a 3d implicit function with same size bricks (eg. a sphere made of bricks).
The best way to learn a new language is to make an interesting yet useful application with it. (I'm against the "HeloWorld".)
So, I've got the idea and the motivation, but..

Now I just don't know how to begin  Embarrassed

Could anybody help me with the start?

At least how to draw a 3D implicit function..
