.SH DESCRIPTION
|
2007-04-12 22:42:49 +00:00
|
|
|
This function projects a point in the plane onto the surface of a
|
2004-11-03 13:51:07 +00:00
|
|
|
Riemann Sphere, the one-point compactification of the complex plane.
|

|
|
|
Each finite point
|
|
|
|
|
.I z
|
|
|
|
|
projects to
|
|
|
|
|
.I z
|
|
|
|
|
itself.

|
Every complex infinite value is projected to a single infinite value,
|
|
|
|
|
namely to positive infinity on the real axis.
