CagdVecStruct *BzrCrvTangent(CagdCrvStruct *Crv, CagdRType t)
 

DESCRIPTION

Returns a unit vector, equal to the tangent to Crv at parameter value t. Algorithm: pseudo subdivide Crv at t and using control point of subdivided curve find the tangent as the difference of the 2 end points.  

PARAMETERS:

Crv: Crv for which to compute a unit tangent.

t: The parameter at which to compute the unit tangent.  

FUNCTION RETURN VALUE
