3.5.3 Cylindrical coordinates
To define a point in space, the system of cylindrical coordinates can be used as well as the Cartesian
coordinate system.
A point on this system would be defined by :
The projection of this point on the main plane, which should be defined in polar coordinates (R Q).
Rest of axes in Cartesian coordinates.
Examples:
R30 Q10 Z100
R20 Q45 Z10 V30 A20
