Additional Information 2:
That‘s how I want to call it.
protocol Surface {
//Some general stuff for the intersection (not implemented yet)
}
struct Plane: Surface {
var point: Int
var normal: Int
}
struct Zylinder: Surface {
var point: Int
var vector: Int
var d: Double
}
struct Customsurface: Surface {
// not implement yet
// You will be able to create any shape you want
}
func intersect(a: Surface, b: Surface) {
print(“custom“)
}
func intersect(a: Plane, b: Plane) {
print(“plane“)
}
let surface = Plane(point: 10, normal: 10)
let array: [Surface] = [Plane(point: 10, normal: 10), Costumsurface()]
for i in array {
intersect(a: surface, b: i)
}
Wanted results:
plane
general
Got results:
genaral
general
I hope this make my goal more clear.

Additional Information:
protocol Surface {
//Some general stuff for the intersection (not implemented yet)
}
struct Plane: Surface {
var point: SIMD3
var normal: SIMD3
}
struct Zylinder: Surface {
var point: SIMD3
var vector: SIMD3
var d: Double
}
struct Customsurface: Surface {
//not implement yet
//You will be able to creat any shap you want
}
So I want a function which has more implementations, so I can short cut a plane plane intersection. This functionality should still be available, when I intersect two items of [Surface]. (Zylinder is just an additional Type which is very common.)
I hope it is more clear now.
More Information
I want my programm to intersect two surfaces.
These surfaces are given in a prametric form. A Surface contains three mathematical functions. Those are x(u,v), y(u,v), z(u,v) . So for every u and v you can compute a point in 3D-Space. (When I set up my set of equations I above, I used s and t for the second face)
Some pseudo code so you can understand the Problem better. (When wrote that I want a func with two surfaces as the input I meant a function in my code)
func intersect(s1: Surface, s2: Surface) {
// The lines below are a mathematical notation
s1.x = s2.x
s1.y = s2.y
s1.z = s3.z
// This created a set of three equations. (like the one I shared with you in a comment)
setofequations.solve() //Now the programm has to solve this set of equations
}
The really tricky part is that there are more parameteres than equations, so the result are mathematical functions for the unknown insteed of values.
I hope could explain my problem better.
