# This code is: yet another attempt at producing better meshes from
# implicit surfaces / isosurfaces. My paper notes from around the
# same time period describe some more of why and how.
#
# This depends on the Python bindings for libfive (circa revision
# 601730dc), on numpy, and on autograd from
# https://github.com/HIPS/autograd for automatic differentiation.
#
# For an implicit surface expressed in a Python function, it:
# - uses libfive to generate a mesh for this implicit surface,
# - dumps this face-vertex data (numpy arrays) to disk in a form Blender
# can load pretty easily, (this is done only because exporting and
# loading an STL resulted in vertex and face indices being out of sync
# for some reason, perhaps libfive's meshing having randomness.)
# - iterates over each edge from libfive's mesh data,
# - for that edge, computes the curvature of the surface perpendicular
# to that edge,
# - saves this curvature away in another file Blender can load.
#
# There are then some Blender routines for its Python API which load
# the mesh, load the curvatures, and then try to turn these per-edge
# curvature values to edge crease weights. The hope was that this
# would allow subdivision to work effectively on the resultant mesh in
# sharper (higher-curvature) areas - lower crease weights should fit
# lower-curvature areas better, and higher crease weights should keep
# a sharper edge from being dulled too much by subdivision.
#
# I tried with spiral_implicit, my same spiral isosurface function
# from 2005 June yet again, as the implicit surface, but also yet
# again, it proved a very difficult surface to work with.
# Below is some elisp so that I can use the right environment in Emacs
# and elpy:
#
# (setq python-shell-interpreter "nix-shell" python-shell-interpreter-args " -I nixpkgs=/home/hodapp/nixpkgs -p python3Packages.libfive python3Packages.autograd python3Packages.numpy --command \"python3 -i\"")
# This is a kludge to ensure libfive's bindings can be found:
