Convex Hull Ladder¶
Who This Is For¶
Use this ladder when your orientation primitive is stable and you want your first complete geometry algorithm with real structural payoff.
Warm-Up¶
- monotonic chain
- collinear handling choices
Core¶
- hull construction
- rotating-calipers follow-up later
Exit Criteria¶
You are ready to move on when you can:
- implement monotonic chain from memory
- state clearly whether your version keeps collinear boundary points
- avoid duplicate endpoint bugs
- recognize hull as the right preprocessing step for extreme-point problems
