Package stl implements functions to read, write, and transform files in the Stereolithography/Surface Tesselation Language (.stl) file format used in 3D modelling. The format specification was taken from http://www.ennex.com/~fabbers/StL.asp, found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STL_%28file_format%29. While STL stores the data in single precision 32 bit floating point numbers, the stl package does all calculations beyond simple addition in double precision 64 bit (float64). Usage Example Everything that operates on a model is defined as a method of Solid. Note that The STL format has two variants, a human-readable ASCII variant, and a more compact and precise binary variant which is preferrable. The Solid.BinaryHeader field and the Triangle.Attributes fields will be empty, after reading, as these are not part of the ASCII format. The Solid.Name field is read from the first line after "solid ". It is not checked against the name at the end of the file after "endsolid ". The stl package will also not cope with Unicode byte order marks, which some text editors might automatically place at the beginning of a file. The Solid.BinaryHeader field is filled with all 80 bytes of header data. Then, ReadFile will try to fill solid.Name with an ASCII string read from the header data from the first byte until a \0 or a non-ASCII character is detected. As always when you do linear transformations on floating point numbers, you get numerical errors. So you should expect a vertex being rotated for 360° not to end up at exactly the original coordinates, but instead just very close to them. As the error is usually far smaller than the available precision of 3D printing applications, this is not an issue in most cases.
