# Pointset generator #

## `off_file_from_shape_generator` ##

Generates a pointset and save it in an OFF file. Command-line is:
`off_file_from_shape_generator on|in sphere|cube|curve|torus|klein <filename> <num_points> <dimension> <parameter1> <parameter2>...`

Warning: "on cube" generator is not available!

Examples:

* Generate an onSphere.off file with 1000 points randomized on a sphere of dimension 3 and radius 15.2:
`off_file_from_shape_generator on sphere onSphere.off 1000 3 15.2`
 
* Generate an inSphere.off file with 100 points randomized in a sphere of dimension 2 (circle) and radius 1.0 (default):
`off_file_from_shape_generator in sphere inSphere.off 100 2`

* Generates a inCube.off file with 10000 points randomized in a cube of dimension 3 and side 5.8:
`off_file_from_shape_generator in cube inCube.off 10000 3 5.8`
