GLOBAL CODE ALGORITHM Get the data point from the STL file. These points are saved in form of Matrices. For Example‚ the Vertex matrix is saved a 3-dimensional matrix‚ having 3 vertices for each face‚ and each vertex have three coordinates. So the size of the matrix V will be D1x3x3‚ where D1 is the number of faces. In order to simplify mesh‚ we have used the method where we combine the two vertices of the face if they are less than a threshold value‚ say t= 1.1 units. For a particular face Fn

the experience of power. Nietzsche shows the theory of matter and how force centers the will to power. A film that I can relate Nietzsche’s ideas to is the Matrix. The theme of the movie is basically to create a “new truth” through choices and beliefs. The connection I see is that Nietzsche talks about a “true world” and the movie the Matrix is about a “new truth”‚ knowledge‚ and reality.
