Sphere

class compas.geometry.Sphere(point, radius)[source]

Bases: compas.geometry.shapes._shape.Shape

A sphere is defined by a point and a radius.

Parameters

point (compas.geometry.Point list of float) – The center of the sphere.
radius (float) – The radius of the sphere.

Attributes

point (compas.geometry.Point) – The center of the sphere.
radius (float) – The radius of the sphere.
center (read-only) (compas.geometry.Point) – The center of the sphere.
area (read-only) (float) – The surface area of the sphere.
volume (read-only) (float) – The volume of the sphere.

Examples

>>> from compas.geometry import Point
>>> from compas.geometry import Sphere
>>> sphere1 = Sphere(Point(1, 1, 1), 5)
>>> sphere2 = Sphere((2, 4, 1), 2)
>>> sphere3 = Sphere([2, 4, 1], 2)

Methods

`copy`()	Makes a copy of this primitive.
`from_data`(data)	Construct a sphere from its data representation.
`from_json`(filepath)	Construct a primitive from structured data contained in a json file.
`to_data`()	Returns the data dictionary that represents the primitive.
`to_json`(filepath)	Serialise the structured data representing the primitive to json.
`to_vertices_and_faces`([u, v])	Returns a list of vertices and faces
`transform`(transformation)	Transform the sphere.
`transformed`(transformation)	Returns a transformed copy of this primitive.
`validate_data`()	Validate the data of this object against its data schema (self.DATASCHEMA).
`validate_json`()	Validate the data loaded from a JSON representation of the data of this object against its data schema (self.DATASCHEMA).
