int plucker_line_from_points
(
	Vector **plucker_line,
	const Vector *point_one,
	const Vector *point_two
);

PARAMETERS

Vector **plucker_line
The target Vector pointer to put the new plucker line into.
const Vector *point_one
The first point, as a homogenized 4-Vector.
const Vector *point_two
The second point, as a homogenized 4-Vector.

DESCRIPTION

Creates a 6-vector plucker line from the elements in two 4-vectors representing two points in three-dimensional space.

RETURNS

ERROR if either point is of innappropriate size or if allocation fails. NO_ERROR otherwise.
