I'm looking for any tutorials on how to create isosurfaces to represent the
shapes I want. I have read the included documentation on isosurfaces that
comes with POV-Ray, but I did not understand it very well. I understand
that the shape is defined by the "function { ... }" line of the isosurface
object, but I did not understand how the specific example functions produce
the images shown attributed to them. Any help with other tutorials on this
matter out there? Thanks.

You might try <http://www.econym.demon.co.uk/isotut/>, but some of the
stuff I wrote there has ended up in the documentation, so some of it
won't be new to you.

Thank you. Actually, I found that much easier to understand than the
included documentation. Maybe it was just the way it was written, I don't
know.

A math book might also help.
