4.24.2 polytopeViaInequalities

Syntax:
polytopeViaInequalities( intmat IE )
polytopeViaInequalities( intmat IE, intmat E )
polytopeViaInequalities( intmat IE, intmat E, int flags )
Type:
cone
Purpose:
cone consisting of all points x, such that IE*x >= 0 in each component and (if stated) E*x = 0; flags may range between 0,..,3 defining an upper and lower bit (0=0*2+0, 1=0*2+1, 2=1*2+0, 3=1*2+1), if higher bit is 1, then program assumes each inequality yields a facet, if lower bit is 1, then program assumes the kernel of E is the span of the cone, if either bit is 0, then program computes the information itself.
Example:
 
LIB"gfanlib.so";
intmat IE[2][3]=
1,0,0,
0,1,0;
intmat E[1][3]=
0,0,1;
