bbox3d

Ellipsoids are created by rgl functions as meshes of points, segments, ... from coordinates
in various forms. This function calculates the bounding box, defined as the range of the
x, y, and z coordinates.

Represents generalized geometric ellipsoids with the "(U,D)" representation. It allows degenerate
and/or unbounded ellipsoids, together with methods for linear and duality transformations, and for plotting.
Thus ellipsoids are naturally extended to include lines, hyperplanes, points, cylinders, etc.
This permits exploration of a variety to statistical issues that can be visualized using ellipsoids
as discussed by Friendly, Fox & Monette (2013), Elliptical Insights: Understanding Statistical Methods
Through Elliptical Geometry <doi:10.1214/12-STS402>.
