Hi,

after a lot of brooding over LIFO ( and waiting for one of the Muses to kiss me
- none of them did) I gave it a try.
Be warned Povray complains: Expected 'array identifier', undeclared identfier
'Vertices' found instead.
What it should do is: produce a simple sort Pythagoras tree.

Hope you are not laughing your head off when you see my humble efforts.

Please advice

Cheers
Droj
