#lib_2d
A c++ library for anything related to points within the 2d space (using floating point data types)
using Catch as testing framework https://github.com/philsquared/Catch

##version 0.9.1

##templated
tested for:

```cpp
float
double
long double
```

##classes
currently, the following classes are supported:

```cpp
Point //a point defined with two coordinates (x and y)
PointCloud //a collection Points, without topological information
OrderedPointCloud //a PointCloud with additional information regarding sorting and filtering of points
KdTree //search tree to quickly find nearest neighbors

//subclasses of PointCloud
LineSegment //a line segment defined by start and end point
Rectangle //a rectangle defined by width, height and center
Arc //an arc defined by diameter, center, start- and end angle
Ellipse //an ellipse
InterpolationBezier //a bezier curve interpolation
InterpolationLinear //a linear interpolation
InvolutCircle //involut curve of a circle
```

##methods
some of the supported methods:

```cpp
move_by(...) //moves the Point or PointCloud
mirror_vertically(...) //mirrors the Point or PointCloud at a vertical line (horizontally and point also supported)
rotate(...) //rotate by angle around a center
to_string(...) //write coordinates to a string
from_string(...) //parse from a string
distance_to(...) //calculate distances between points
load(...) //load coordinates from file
to_file(...) //write coordinates to file
bounding_box(...) //the minimum bounding rectangle of a PointCloud
convex_hull(...) //calculate the convex hull of a PointCloud
concave_hull(...) //compareable to the convex hull, while better following the shape of a pointcloud
intersections_with(...) //intersections between paths
sort_x(...) //sort by x (or y)
range(from,to) //get ranges of PointCloud
and_many(more)
```

also chainable:
```cpp
path.move_by(...).rotate(...).sort_x(...)
```

##compatible with other containers

```cpp
vector< Point > vec = vector >(path.begin(), path.end());
...
PointCloud path = PointCloud(vec.begin(), vec.end());
```

##operator overloads

```cpp
== != //equality
+ += //appending to PointCloud
[] //access elements of PointCloud
std::cout << PointCloud << Point; //overloads for streams
```

##using lib_2d
add `inc/` to your include path and `#include lib_2d.h` within your code
`/tests/test_lib_2d.cpp` also provides a basic usage example

##testing
`make tests`
you can also use
`make clean`
