3.2 Intersections

Intersection functions provide the points belonging to both of two given geometric objects. Sets are considered as open paths. For line-line intersections the function is point valued, otherwise it is set valued.

Intersection functions

intersection(l, l')

Intersection of line l and line l'. Parallel lines cause an error.

intersection(l, s)

Intersection of line l and set s.

intersection(l, c)

Intersection of line l and circle or conic c.

intersection(s, s')

Intersection of set s and set s'.

intersection(c, c')

Intersection of circle c and circle c'.

intersection(c, s)

Intersection of circle c and set s.
