Action: Gets number of simple patches in the u parameter direction forming a bs3_surface.

Prototype: int bs3_surface_nspans_u (


bs3_surface sur // given surface


);

Description: If a spline surface consists of a rectangular array of simple patches, each rectangular in parameter space, returns the number of such patches in the u parameter direction.


What is considered a "simple" patch is open to interpretation, but with a piecewise bipolynomial surface (such as a B-spline), each bipolynomial piece would be a reasonable choice.
