Ray
Ray[{x1,y1},{x2,y2}]
is an object representing the infinite ray beginning at {x1,y1} in the direction of the point {x2,y2}.
Details and Options
- Ray functionality is now available in the built-in Wolfram Language function InfiniteLine .
- To use Ray, you first need to load the Computational Geometry Package using Needs ["ComputationalGeometry`"].
- Ray objects are used in the representation of open polygons in Voronoi diagrams.
