Technical Program Outline
Note: All coordinates are referenced in top view in the program unless otherwise specifiedzoomwin - zooms on a window space
pipe1 - draws a pipe (from the pipe program) with no zoom
zoomwin - zooms on a window space
cylinder3 - is to draw a cylinder for orifice purpose
...
array1 - draw starting at point p1, n1 -- as many rows as the tank length/orifice dist, n2 - 1 and provide orifice distance as the next draw point for the cylinder
subtract1 subtract2 - subtract unneeded portion of the cylinders
