                    Requests the internal storage format of the texture image.  The most
                    current version of the SGI implementation of GLU does not check this
                    value for validity before passing it on to the underlying OpenGL
                    implementation.  A value that is not accepted by the OpenGL
                    implementation will lead to an OpenGL error.  The benefit of not
                    checking this value at the GLU level is that OpenGL extensions can add
                    new internal texture formats without requiring a revision of the GLU
                    implementation.  Older implementations of GLU check this value and
                    raise a GLU error if it is not 1, 2, 3, or 4 or one of the following

            <function>gluBuild3DMipmapLevels</function> builds a subset of prefiltered three-dimensional texture maps of
            decreasing resolutions called a mipmap. This is used for the antialiasing of
            texture mapped primitives.

            A return value of zero indicates success, otherwise a GLU error code is

            A series of mipmap levels from <parameter>base</parameter> to <parameter>max</parameter> is built by
            decimating <parameter>data</parameter> in half along both dimensions until size

            level is an average of the corresponding eight texels in the larger
            mipmap level. (If exactly one of the dimensions is 1, four texels are
            averaged.  If exactly two of the dimensions are 1, two texels are
            averaged.)  <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glTexImage3D</refentrytitle></citerefentry> is called to load these mipmap levels
            from <parameter>base</parameter> to <parameter>max</parameter>. If <parameter>max</parameter> is larger than the highest mipmap
            level for the texture of the specified size, then a GLU error code is
            returned (see <citerefentry><refentrytitle>gluErrorString</refentrytitle></citerefentry>) and nothing is loaded.
