| Stretching |

If you repeatedly switch this page with the previously one, you shall see
that the center of the ball on the picture is mostly unchanged, and the
edges are stretched so that spherical deformations are minimized. It is,
of course, impossible to represent the spherical image on the 2D plane,
but this edge stretching enables using numbers which are not exactly in
the center of the image. |
