Plane

Class Plane

The Plane class represents an infinite plane in 3D space, defined uniquely by an origin point and a normal vector, along with two other vectors lying on the plane, providing a complete basis for defining plane orientation and position.

Constructor

__init__(self)

"Initializes a new Plane instance.

    - `Origin` (Point): The origin point of the plane, which also lies on the plane.
    - `Normal` (Vector): A vector perpendicular to the plane, defining its orientation.
    - `v1` (Vector): A vector lying on the plane, typically representing the "x" direction on the plane.
    - `v2` (Vector): Another vector on the plane, perpendicular to `v1` and typically representing the "y" direction on the plane.

Methods

• __str__(self) -> str: Generates a string representation of the Plane.

• deserialize(data: dict) -> Plane: Creates a Plane object from a serialized data dictionary. This method allows for the reconstruction of a Plane instance from data previously serialized into a dictionary format, typically after storage or transmission.

• serialize(self) -> dict: Serializes the plane's attributes into a dictionary. This method facilitates the conversion of the plane's properties into a format that can be easily stored or transmitted.

Documentation

__str__(self) -> str

Generates a string representation of the Plane.

Returns:

str: A string describing the Plane with its origin, normal, and basis vectors.

Example usage:

---

deserialize(data: dict) -> Plane

Creates a Plane object from a serialized data dictionary. This method allows for the reconstruction of a Plane instance from data previously serialized into a dictionary format, typically after storage or transmission.

Parameters:

data (dict): The dictionary containing the serialized data of a Plane object.

Returns:

Plane: A new Plane object initialized with the data from the dictionary.

Example usage:

---

serialize(self) -> dict

Serializes the plane's attributes into a dictionary. This method facilitates the conversion of the plane's properties into a format that can be easily stored or transmitted.

Returns:

dict: A dictionary containing the serialized attributes of the plane.

Example usage:
