NAME

Vector::Object3D::Examples - Examples of how to use Vector::Object3D

DESCRIPTION

Vector::Object3D is Perl module providing most basic procedures to facilitate handling of vector object calculations in the 3D space, including fundamental transformations (translating, scaling, rotating) as well as perspective 2D casting.

EXAMPLES

tetrahedron.pl

This example shows how to use Vector::Object3D to precalculate rotating 3D tetrahedron and animate it using Tk:
