Experiments with ruby-processing (processing-2.2.1) and JRubyArt for processing-3.0

Somewhat optimised version of trefoil sketch

I knew there was something missing (previous post), I had fully intended to optimise the trefoil sketch, here is my effort, where some values are pre-calculated, and although it look slightly messy putting values directly into new Vec3D instance:-
# Trefoil, by Andres Colubri
# A parametric surface is textured procedurally
# by drawing on an offscreen PGraphics surface.
# somewhat optimised version for ruby-processing (development version)

load_libraries :vecmath, :fastmath

attr_reader :pg, :trefoil

def setup
  size(1024, 768, P3D)

  texture_mode(NORMAL)
  noStroke

  # Creating offscreen surface for 3D rendering.
  @pg = create_graphics(32, 512, P3D)
  pg.begin_draw
  pg.background(0, 0)
  pg.noStroke
  pg.fill(255, 0, 0, 200)
  pg.end_draw

  # Saving trefoil surface into a PShape3D object
  @trefoil = create_trefoil(350, 60, 15, pg)
end

def draw
  background(0)

  pg.begin_draw
  pg.ellipse(rand(0.0 .. pg.width), rand(0.0 .. pg.height), 4, 4)
  pg.end_draw

  ambient(250, 250, 250)
  pointLight(255, 255, 255, 0, 0, 200)

  push_matrix
  translate(width/2, height/2, -200)
  rotate_x(frame_count * PI / 500)
  rotate_y(frame_count * PI / 500)
  shape(trefoil)
  pop_matrix
end

# Code to draw a trefoil knot surface, with normals and texture 
# coordinates.

# This function draws a trefoil knot surface as a triangle mesh derived
# from its parametric equation.
