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. Algorithm by Dan Sunday, http://geometryalgorithms.com/Archive/algorithm_0109/algorithm_0109.htm
