0 COMMENT This figure is the intersection of
0 COMMENT a) one octant (1/8th) of a sphere
0 COMMENT whose radius is "the square root of two"
0 COMMENT (i.e. radius = 2^0.5) and whose focus (center)
0 COMMENT is the origin point (0,0,0)
0 COMMENT and
0 COMMENT b) a cube whose length is "one" (i.e. box.dat)
0 COMMENT and which has (0,0,0) and (1,1,1)
0 COMMENT as opposing corners
0 COMMENT leaving only the sphere's surface.
0 COMMENT Each edge is circular and fits with a 1-4edge.dat.
