// .NAME vtkSphere - implicit function for a sphere
// .SECTION Description
// vtkSphere computes the implicit function and/or gradient for a sphere.
// vtkSphere is a concrete implementation of vtkImplicitFunction. Additional
// methods are available for sphere-related computations, such as computing
// bounding spheres for a set of points, or set of spheres.

  // bounding sphere; the two values in the hints array are the two points
  // expected to be the furthest apart. The output sphere consists of a
  // center (x-y-z) and a radius.
