NAME

       Math::Polygon::Convex - Collection of convex algorithms

INHERITANCE

        Math::Polygon::Convex
          is a Exporter

SYNOPSIS

        use Math::Polygon::Convex  qw/chainHull_2D/;

        my @points = ( [1,2], [2,4], [5,7], [1,2] );
        my $poly   = chainHull_2D @points;

DESCRIPTION

       The "convex polygon" around a set of points, is the polygon with a minimal size which
       contains all points.

       This package contains one convex calculation algorithm, but may be extended with
       alternative implementations in the future.

FUNCTIONS

       chainHull_2D($points)
           Each POINT is an ARRAY of two elements: the X and Y coordinate of a point.  Returned
           is the enclosing convex Math::Polygon object.
