Editor's Note: This file was selected as MATLAB Central Pick of the Week

The aim of geom3d library is to handle and visualize 3D geometric primitives such as points, lines, planes, polyhedra... It provides low-level functions for manipulating 3D geometric primitives, making easier the development of more complex geometric algorithms.
Note: the project has merged with the geom2d library (FeX 7844-geom2d), and is now hosted on GitHub: https://github.com/mattools/matGeom. The whole package can be retrieved from the matGeom toolbox contribution.
