Hi Eray,
It's easiest to start with simple cases.
I'll follow-up with a little Qbasic program.
[Gotta dig it out of its archive.]
Until I find it, if you read this before I do,
ponder that 3-D Trigonometry does Map
3-D Continuity from any point to Infinity
[seems so 'common-sensical' as to be a,
"So what?", but there exists True-Wonder
stuff in-there.]
