dear all,
This problem is a real challenge. Given is x,y,z coordinates of
the 8 vertices of a cube and x,y,z coordinates of the 3 vertices of a
triangle Find the area of intersection. The cube and triangle are both 3D.

I got the solution from Hans-Bernhard Broeker
(***@physik.rwth-aachen.de)
the solution is
initialize a polygon with the triangle
chop the sides of the polygon successively by the 6 planes of the cube and
make changes to the polygon
find the area of the 3d polygon which is easy
