        Parameters
        ----------
        type
            A SymbolicConstant specifying the type of AnalyticSurfaceSegment. Possible values are 
            START, LINE, CIRCLE, and PARABOLA. 
        data
            A sequence of sequences of Floats specifying the coordinates of point/s representing the 
            segment of the AnalyticSurface object. If *type*=CIRCLE, the first row contains 
            coordinates of the end point and the second row contains coordinates of the center 
            point. If *type*=PARABOLA, the first row contains coordinates of the middle point and 
            the second row contains coordinates of the end point. If *type*=START or *type*=LINE, a 
            single row contains coordinates of the start/end point. 

        Returns
        -------
            An AnalyticSurfaceSegment object.
