function [Center,Radius] = sphereFit(X)
% this fits a sphere to a collection of data using a closed form for the
% solution (opposed to using an array the size of the data set).
% Minimizes Sum((x-xc)^2+(y-yc)^2+(z-zc)^2-r^2)^2
% x,y,z are the data, xc,yc,zc are the sphere's center, and r is the radius
% Assumes that points are not in a singular configuration, real numbers, ...
% if you have coplanar data, use a circle fit with svd for determining the
% plane, recommended Circle Fit (Pratt method), by Nikolai Chernov
% http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/22643
% Input:
% X: n x 3 matrix of cartesian data
% Outputs:
% Center: Center of sphere
% Radius: Radius of sphere
