    Can a Torus Be Created with Checkerboard Quadrilateral Faces?

    Is it possible to create a solid whose sides are all quadrilaterals, and whose vertices are all bringing together four edges? I've been playing around in autocad and haven't been able to come up with a way to do this. I'm trying to make a checkerboard type of solid where no touching faces have...

    Function/Curve that goes through certain points?

    Is there a simple way to make a function go through a set of points? Something similar to what I'm looking for is this; a function that creates a smooth curve crossing y=0 at a list of x-coordinates This will cross y=0 at x=-10, x=-2, and x=5 f(x)=(x-(-10))(x-(-2))(x-(5)) This is...

    Function that equals 1 at x=0, but 0 everywhere else?

    That'll do it :P It seems like any real constant greater than 1 works in place of e. Is there a reason why you chose e?

    Function that equals 1 at x=0, but 0 everywhere else?

    Is there a function that equals 1 at x=0 and equals 0 when x isn't 0 without using a piecewise function? I've been experimenting with limits and derivatives but haven't made much progress. The closest thing I was able to think of is 1-x/x, which is indeterminate at x=0, and 0 everywhere else...
