In_flat_power_side_of_power_sphere_d

typedef unspecified_type RegularTriangulationTraits::In_flat_power_side_of_power_sphere_d

A predicate object that must provide the templated operator template<typename ForwardIterator> Oriented_side operator()(Flat_orientation_d orient, ForwardIterator start, ForwardIterator end, const Weighted_point_d & p).

The points in range [start,end) and p are supposed to belong to the lower-dimensional flat whose orientation is given by orient.

Let \( S \) be the power sphere of the weighted points in range [start,end) in this lower dimensional flat. The operator returns:

• ON_ORIENTED_BOUNDARY if p is orthogonal to \( S \),
• ON_NEGATIVE_SIDE if the power distance between p and \( S \) is positive.
• ON_POSITIVE_SIDE otherwise.

Precondition

std::distance(start,end)=k+1 where \( k\) is the number of points used to construct orient (dimension of the flat). The points in range [start,end) must be affinely independent. p must be in the flat generated by these points.

Power_side_of_power_sphere_d

typedef unspecified_type RegularTriangulationTraits::Power_side_of_power_sphere_d

A predicate object that must provide the templated operator template<typename ForwardIterator> Oriented_side operator()(ForwardIterator start, ForwardIterator end, const Weighted_point_d & p).

Let \( S \) be the power sphere of the weighted points in range [start,end). The operator returns:

• ON_ORIENTED_BOUNDARY if p is orthogonal to \( S \),
• ON_NEGATIVE_SIDE if the power distance between p and \( S \) is positive.
• ON_POSITIVE_SIDE otherwise.

Precondition

If Dimension is CGAL::Dimension_tag<D>, then std::distance(start,end)=D+1. The weighted points in range [start,end) must be affinely independent, i.e., the simplex must not be flat.

The default constructor (optional).

This is not required when an instance of the traits is provided to the constructor of CGAL::Regular_triangulation.
