# incremental-convex-hull Computes the convex hull of a collection of points in general position by incremental insertion. No attempt is made to handle degeneracies. This module is meant to be used internally by other modules for calculating convex hulls and Delaunay triangulations. You probably shouldn't call it directly unless you know what you are doing. Instead, there will (eventually) be a wrapper over this module that handles all the special cases and correctly generates a convex hull.
