public interface Basis
Interface for - basically 3D - noise generation algorithms, based on the book: Texturing & Modeling - A Procedural Approach The main concept is to look at noise as a basis for generating fractals. Basis can be anything, like a simple: float value(float x, float y, float z) { return 0; // a flat noise with 0 value everywhere } or a more complex perlin noise (ImprovedNoise Fractals use these functions to generate a more complex result based on some frequency, roughness, etcetera values. Fractals themselves are implementing the Basis interface as well, opening an infinite range of results.
