Abstract :
In this series of articles we´ve found that we can represent an arbitrary line in projective 3-space with six numbers. We can construct this line either from two points on it or as the intersection of two planes. If we construct the line from two points S and T, with homogeneous coordinates S=[xS yS zS wS] T=[xT yT zT wT].
