Cylindrical
This class can be used to represent points in 3D space as Cylindrical coordinates.
Constructor
new Cylindrical( radius : number, theta : number, y : number )
Constructs a new cylindrical.
radius
The distance from the origin to a point in the x-z plane.
Default is 1.
theta
A counterclockwise angle in the x-z plane measured in radians from the positive z-axis.
Default is 0.
y
The height above the x-z plane.
Default is 0.
Properties
.radius : number

.theta : number
A counterclockwise angle in the x-z plane measured in radians from the positive z-axis.
Default is 0.
.y : number
The height above the x-z plane.
Default is 0.
Methods

Returns: A clone of this instance.
.copy( other : Cylindrical ) : Cylindrical
Copies the values of the given cylindrical to this instance.
other
The cylindrical to copy.
Returns: A reference to this cylindrical.
.set( radius : number, theta : number, y : number ) : Cylindrical
Sets the cylindrical components by copying the given values.
radius
The radius.
theta
The theta angle.
y
The height value.
Returns: A reference to this cylindrical.
