% TUBEPLOT TUBEPLOT Creates a Tubeplot
% 
% Usage
% 
% This tubeplot function is from the tubeplot package
% written by Anders Sandberg. The simplest syntax for the
% tubeplot routine is
% 
%     tubeplot(x,y,z)
% 
% plots the basic tube with radius 1, where x,y,z are
% vectors that describe the tube.  If the radius of the
% tube is to be varied, use the second form
% 
%     tubeplot(x,y,z,r) 
% 
% which plots the basic tube with variable radius r (either 
% a vector or a scalar value).  The third form allows you
% to specify the coloring using a vector of values:
% 
%     tubeplot(x,y,z,r,v)
% 
% where the coloring is now dependent on the values in the 
% vector v.  If you want to create a tube plot with 
% a greater degree of tangential subdivisions (i.e.,
% the tube is more circular, use the form
% 
%     tubeplot(x,y,z,r,v,s)
% 
% where s is the number of tangential subdivisions (default is 6)
% You can also use tubeplot to calculate matrices to feed to mesh
% and surf.
% 
%     [X,Y,Z]=tubeplot(x,y,z)
% 
% returns N x 3 matrices suitable for mesh or surf.
% 
% Note that the tube may pinch at points where the normal and binormal 
% misbehaves. It is suitable for general space curves, not ones that 
% contain straight sections. Normally the tube is calculated using the
% Frenet frame, making the tube minimally twisted except at inflexion points.
% 
% To deal with this problem there is an alternative frame:
% 
%     tubeplot(x,y,z,r,v,s,vec)
% 
% calculates the tube by setting the normal to
% the cross product of the tangent and the vector vec. If it is chosen so 
% that it is always far from the tangent vector the frame will not twist unduly.

% FRAME Calculate a Frenet-like frame for a polygonal space curve
% [t,n,b]=frame(x,y,z,v) returns the tangent unit vector, a normal
% and a binormal of the space curve x,y,z. The curve may be a row or
% column vector, the frame vectors are each row vectors. 
%
% This function calculates the normal by taking the cross product
% of the tangent with the vector v; if v is chosen so that it is
% always far from t the frame will not twist unduly.
% 
% If two points coincide, the previous tangent and normal will be used.
