TORUS (Radius,TubeRadius,w1)

This function shows the Torus for the given value.
In $TORUS(Radius,TubeRadius,w1)$ , $Radius$ is the radius value of the bigger circle.
$TubeRadius$ is the radius value of the smaller circle.
A torus is a surface of revolution generated by revolving a circle in three dimensional space about an axis co planar with the circle. *If the axis of revolution does not touch the circle, the surface has a ring shape and is called a torus of revolution.
For example of TORUS are rings, doughnuts, and bagels.
A torus can be defined parametrically by:

 $x(\theta ,\phi )=(R+rCos\theta )Cos\phi$ 
 $y(\theta ,\phi )=(R+rCos\theta )Sin\phi$ 
 $z(\theta ,\phi )=rSin\theta$

where $\theta$ , $\phi$ are angles which make a full circle, so that their values start and end at the same point.
