| chull | R Documentation |
Computes the subset of points which lie on the convex hull of the set of points specified.
chull(x, y = NULL)
x, y |
coordinate vectors of points. This can be specified as two
vectors |
xy.coords is used to interpret the specification of the
points. Infinite, missing and NaN values are not allowed.
The algorithm is that given by Eddy (1977).
An integer vector giving the indices of the unique points lying on the convex hull, in clockwise order. (The first will be returned for duplicate points.)
