intersectEdgePlane(edge, plane, varargin)

function point = intersectEdgePlane(edge, plane, varargin)
%INTERSECTEDGEPLANE Return intersection point between a plane and a edge
%
%   PT = intersectEdgePlane(edge, PLANE) return the intersection point of
%   the given edge and the given plane.
%   PLANE : [x0 y0 z0 dx1 dy1 dz1 dx2 dy2 dz2]
%   edge :  [x1 y1 z1 x2 y2 z2]
%   PT :    [xi yi zi]
%   If EDGE and PLANE are parallel, return [NaN NaN NaN].
%   If EDGE (or PLANE) is a matrix with 6 (or 9) columns and N rows, result
%   is an array of points with N rows and 3 columns.
%   
%   Example:
%   edge = [5 5 -1 5 5 1];
%   plane = [0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0];
%   intersectEdgePlane(edge, plane)     % should return [5 5 0].
%   ans =
%       5   5   0
