Convex Hull of a pointset
Description
Convex Hull of a pointset in plane.
Usage
convexhull(x, y=NULL,...)
Arguments
x |
The data as a matrix, data frame or list. If it is a matrix or data frame, then each row is viewed as one bivariate observation. If it is a list, all components must be numerical vectors of equal length (coordinates of observations). |
y |
The data as a matrix, data frame or list. If it is a matrix or data frame, then each row is viewed as one bivariate observation. If it is a list, all components must be numerical vectors of equal length (coordinates of observations). |
