What's a Torus Knot?

A torus knot, displays like a tube, described with a diameter, representing the tube. However torus knots wind around both, or either, the circle they declare and the center, or axis. With winding and twisting options you can generate many knot like shapes.

This description's simplified to provide a general overview. Complex tori wind around a circle, q times and p times around its axis of rotational symmetry. Some mathematicians reverse the arrangement between p and q. Equations define various shapes of torus knots.

This particular knot was prepared with 3ds Max. The q value was one and the p value was two.
