init(...)
(Constructor)

Constructor.

Parameters:

radius (float) - Radius of generated spheres.
bBox (BoundingBox) - box specifying the region into which spheres are packed. A 2D packing can be generated by specifying a zero sized z dimension, eg bBox=BoundingBox(Vec3(1,1,0),Vec3(21,21,0)) will generate a 2D packing in the x-y plane.
circDimList (list of 3 bool elements) - list indication which (if any) of the box dimensions is circular (note, only a single dimension may be circular).
tolerance (float) - Generated spheres may overlap by no more than this amount.

Overrides: object.__init__
