Description |
A collection of four AVs, showing convex hull algorithms named "Insertion Hull," "Gift Wrap," Graham's Scan," and "Quick Hull." The user clicks on the screen to set a collection of points. Then the algorithms are set to run, drawing lines as the algorithm progresses. |

Evaluation |
Unless you already are familiar with the algorithms, this won't make much sense. Even if you are familiar with the algorithms, you won't learn much from looking at the lines wrap around the boxes. You might gain a little appreciation for Graham's Scan from watching the AV, but only if you could control the pacing so you could absorb what is happening. The others are pretty much a mystery. |
