D.13.2.33 polytopeViaPoints

Procedure from library gfan.lib (see gfan_lib).

Usage:
polytopeViaPoints(V [, flags]); intmat V, int flags

Return:
polytope which is the intersection of the cone generated by the row vectors of V with the hyperplane, in which the first coordinate equals 1; flags may be 0 or 1,
if flags is 1, then program assumes that each row vector of M generates a ray in the cone, if flags is 0, then program computes that information itself

Example:
 
LIB "gfan.lib";
// This is a polytope in R^2 generated by (0,0), (1,0), (0,1), (0,0);
intmat V[4][3]=
1,0,0,
1,1,0,
1,0,1,
1,1,1;
polytope p1=polytopeViaPoints(V);
