Quick Guide¶
To install jicgeometry
:
sudo pip install jicgeometry
Create some points:
>>> from jicgeometry import Point2D
>>> p1 = Point2D(6, 1)
>>> p2 = Point2D(3, 5)
Find the distances between two points:
>>> p1.distance(p2)
5.0
Add/subtract points from each other:
>>> p1 + p2
<Point2D(x=9, y=6, dtype=int)>
Scale points using multiplication/division:
>>> p1 / 2.0
<Point2D(x=3.00, y=0.50, dtype=float)>
Treat points as vectors:
>>> p1.unit_vector
<Point2D(x=0.99, y=0.16, dtype=float)>
>>> round(p1.magnitude, 4)
