The 2nd image I posted above (ColoredRings) is the example. Each ring is
composed of spheres 0.5 units apart on the circumference. The macro simply
calculates the angle between one sphere and the next for a given ring. The
angle given is rounded to the nearest value that will divide into 360, so
objects can be placed evenly around the circumference, with no uneven gaps.

I don't know how else to explain it, you can look at the source code in the
same www folder the macros are in, if you'd like. :)
