Geometry in Ruby
================

Implementation of basic 2D geometry algorithms in Ruby.


Defined geometry objects
========================

  * Point

  * Segment

  * Vector

  * Polygon

  * Line


Already implemented algorithms
==============================

  * Do segments overlap? { Segments.overlaps? }

  * Do segments lie on one line? { Segment.lies_on_one_line_with? }

  * Do segments intersect? { Segment.intersects_with? }

  * Segments intersection point { Segment.intersection_point_with }

  * Does segment contain given point?  { Segment.contains_point? }

  * Are segments parallel? { Segment.parallel_to? }

  * Are vectors collinear? { Vector.collinear_with? }

  * Vectors cross product (outer product, vector product) { Vector.cross_product }

  * Vectors scalar product (inner product, dot product) { Vector.scalar_product }

  * Segment length { Segment.length }

  * Vector modulus { Vector.modulus }

  * Trivial vector arithmetics: summation, subtraction, vector-number multiplication { Vector.+(vector); Vector.-(vector); Vector.*(numeric) }

  * Euclid distance { Geometry.distance }

  * Line slope { Line.slope }

  * Y-intercept of a line { Line.y_intercept }

  * X-intercept of a line { Line.x_intercept }

  * Are lines parallel? { Line.parallel_to? }

  * What x-value do lines intersect at? { Line.intersect_x }

  * What is the angle between two lines? { Line.angle_to }
