# Introduction

This OpenSCAD module allows for rotational extrusion of generic user-defined profiles,
introducing a pitch in the longitudinal direction, the most common application being
the creation of screws.
The solid is built as a single polyhedron by transforming the 2D points found in the
profile vector. No boolean operation is necessary, aiming at obtaining the ultimate
performance by producing the simplest possible object for the desired level of detail.

# Arguments
```
revolve(profile = [[]], length, nthreads=1, scale=1,
preserve_thread_depth=false, preserve_thread_shape=false,
$fn=$fn, force_alternate_construction=false)
```
* `profile` vector of 2D points defined as: [[z_1, f(z_1)], [z_2, f(z_2)] ... [z_n,f(z_n)]].
f(z) is defined over a closed interval (including the extremes) representing one period of the thread;
