◆ double_coefficients()

template<typename K>
void CGAL::Min_ellipse_2_traits_2< K >::double_coefficients ( double &  r,
double &  s,
double &  t,
double &  u,
double &  v,
double &  w 
)

gives a double approximation of the ellipse's conic equation.

If K is a Cartesian kernel, the ellipse is the set of all points \( (x,y)\) satisfying \( rx^2+sy^2+txy+ux+vy+w=0\). In the Homogeneous case, the ellipse is the set of points \( (hx,hy,hw)\) satisfying \( r(hx)^2+s(hy)^2+t(hx)(hy)+u(hx)(hw)+v(hy)(hw)+w(hw)^2=0\).
