This is a DNA double helix and I got this code from online -
http://www.life-science-it.org/pages/research/projectPovrayHelix.html.

I am unable to get the edges smooth. I have highlighted the edges of the tube in
the attachment.

How to make the edges of the tube to look more smooth. Any help is grateful.

I know this! You should use anti-aliasing.

Another tip: use a lower background/object colour contrast.
