I am writing a program which will evaluate a mathematical expression of the form: Z = AX + BY + C. (It doesn't have to be only 1st order, it can be Z = AX^2 + BY^2 + C or it can even be Z = X^Y. . .) Anyway, what this program would end up doing is creating an array that is X x Y and each element in the array would be a real number from A - B. What I would like to do is save this surface as a 3-D object that can be loaded into a 3-D object rendering system. Is this at all possible? Thanks. -- zane@ddsw1.MCS.COM
