//             Mobius Strip Miniapp:  Generate Mobius strip meshes
//             ---------------------------------------------------
//
// This miniapp generates various Mobius strip-like surface meshes. It is a good
// way to generate complex surface meshes. Manipulating the mesh topology and
// performing mesh transformation are demonstrated. The mobius-strip mesh in the
// data/ directory was generated with this miniapp.
//
// Compile with: make mobius-strip
//
// Sample runs:  mobius-strip
//               mobius-strip -t 4.5 -nx 16
//               mobius-strip -c 1 -t 1
//               mobius-strip -c 1 -t 4 -nx 16
//               mobius-strip -c 0 -t 0.75
