Uhhhhhh...........
You don't need abstract algebra to do 3d programing... just some vector 
algebra and calculus. I don't think you need advanced topography for 
something that a 89 could render =P. Really, I don't think many programmers 
know abstract algebra (including me, except for a miniscule amount).

<USELESSGARBAGE>..Take the Klein bottle, for example. It can be shown that 
this construct has neither an inside or outside. While impossible to 
construct in R3, it is a simple matter (!!!!!!) to form in R4...

In Z12, find all the solutions to the equation x^2+2x-15=5...

Is this subgroup abelian...</USELESSGARBAGE>

NOTE: I take no responsibility for the validity of anything in the above 
garbage section, if i'm right, great, if not, too bad.
