Method Detail

boundingBox

public Point_3[] boundingBox()

Compute the bounding box (enclosing all points)

Specified by:

boundingBox in class PointCloud<Point_3>

Returns:

a Point_3[] array containing the min and max bounds

max

public Point_3 max(int d)

Return the point with greatest coordinate value (in direction d)

Specified by:
