Implementations

Determine the direction you have to turn if you walk from p1 to p2 to p3.

For fixed-precision types (i8,i16,i32,i64,etc), this function is guaranteed to work for any input and never cause any arithmetic overflows.

Polymorphism

This function works with both Points and Vectors. You should prefer to use Point::orient when possible.

Examples
let p1 = Point::new([ 0, 0 ]);
let p2 = Point::new([ 0, 1 ]); // One unit above p1.
// (0,0) -> (0,1) -> (0,2) == Orientation::CoLinear
assert!(Orientation::new(&p1, &p2, &Point::new([ 0, 2 ])).is_colinear());
// (0,0) -> (0,1) -> (-1,2) == Orientation::CounterClockWise
assert!(Orientation::new(&p1, &p2, &Point::new([ -1, 2 ])).is_ccw());
// (0,0) -> (0,1) -> (1,2) == Orientation::ClockWise
assert!(Orientation::new(&p1, &p2, &Point::new([ 1, 2 ])).is_cw());
Run

Locate p2 in relation to the line determined by the point p1 and the direction vector.

For fixed-precision types (i8,i16,i32,i64,etc), this function is guaranteed to work for any input and never cause any arithmetic overflows.

This function is identical to Orientation::new(p1, p1+v, p2) but will never cause arithmetic overflows even if p+v would overflow.

Examples
let v = Vector([ 1, 1 ]); // Vector pointing to the top-right corner.
let p1 = Point::new([ 5, 5 ]);
assert!(Orientation::along_vector(&p1, &v, &Point::new([ 6, 6 ])).is_colinear());
assert!(Orientation::along_vector(&p1, &v, &Point::new([ 7, 8 ])).is_ccw());
assert!(Orientation::along_vector(&p1, &v, &Point::new([ 8, 7 ])).is_cw());
