This
eight
page 3 Dimensional Microworld is
an introduction to the differential geometry of curves in R3. It is also a
way to become familiar with the use of 3D Graphics to support geometric visualization.
In
this Microworld, we will explore several topics, starting with the geometry
of space curves:
And then we will move to the differential geometry of these curves:
