Fitting a plane ellipse in 3D space

Numerical
experiment

Please define the number of points here
N= important: 8 <= n <= 100 !

Please define the parameters for generating the data in the following table.
You don't need to bother about the normalization requirement. This will be done internally. You must have λ1, λ2 >= 0.001 and their quotient in the range [0.001,1000].

a1=
a2 =
a3 =
a4 =
α =
β =
xc =
yc =
λ1 =
λ2 =

N angles will be chosen equidistantly
in [psi1,psi2] to generate the data points:

psi1 =
psi2 =

Please define the error level here. This is applied componentwise relative.
errlev =

Your own data

Please specify the number of points: 8<=num<=100!

num=

Please type the data points in the following textarea, simply as a series of 3*num numbers.
You may write several points in one line as you wish.
(x,y,z) =

Please specify the rotation angles for the x- and the z-axis for defining your viewpoint:
for the x-axis (in [0:180] in degrees , 0=screen horizontal) xang=
for the z-axis(in [0:360] in degrees, 0=vertical to the screen) zang=
