height

double ON_Cylinder::height[2]

If height[0] = height[1], the cylinder is infinite, Otherwise, height[0] < height[1] and the center of the "bottom" cap is

     circle.plane.origin + height[0]*circle.plane.zaxis,

and the center of the top cap is

     circle.plane.origin + height[1]*circle.plane.zaxis.
