;;; For this project, we'll define X and Y to be the typical 2D screen axes, and
;;; Z to be going into the screen (so it's a left-handed coordinate system).
;;;
;;; Cartesian coordinate vectors are:
;;;
;;;     (x y z)
;;;
;;; Cylindrical coordinate vectors are:
;;;
;;;     (radius azimuth height) where height is Y
;;;
;;; Polar coordinate vectors are:
