CGAL::ch_graham_andrew

Definition

The function ch_graham_andrew generates the counterclockwise sequence of extreme points from a given set of input points.

#include <CGAL/ch_graham_andrew.h>

template <class InputIterator, class OutputIterator, class Traits>
OutputIterator	ch_graham_andrew ( InputIterator first, InputIterator beyond, OutputIterator result, Traits ch_traits = Default_traits)
		generates the counterclockwise sequence of extreme points of the points in the range [first,beyond). The resulting sequence is placed starting at position result, and the past-the-end iterator for the resulting sequence is returned. It is not specified at which point the cyclic sequence of extreme points is cut into a linear sequence. Precondition: The source range [first,beyond) does not contain result.

The default traits class Default_traits is the kernel in which the type InputIterator::value_type is defined.

Requirements

1. InputIterator::value_type and OutputIterator::value_type are equivalent to Traits::Point_2.
2. Traits defines the following subset of types from the concept ConvexHullTraits_2 and their corresponding member functions that return instances of these types:
   • Traits::Point_2,
   • Traits::Less_xy_2,
   • Traits::Left_turn_2,
   • Traits::Equal_2.
