The function set_mesh copies the mesh into the viewer. 

funtions under viewer.data scope are supposed to change the showing data in viewer.

  Eigen::Vector3d m = V.colwise().minCoeff();
  Eigen::Vector3d M = V.colwise().maxCoeff();

V is a #V by 3 matrix whose row represents a vertex coordinate in 3d space. Use your imagination, the first column of it corresponds to the x dimension, the second one corresponds to the y dimension, the third one corresponds to the z dimension. Therefore, those two sentences above are to find out the minimum and maximum elements in each dimension separately.
