Understanding using FORTRAN :
Many programming methods are available that are suited for haloed lines. The best code should take display, desired language of program, the available storage space and the appropriate data storage media into account. The process we have created is good, as implemented in FORTRAN, with photos on different storage sizes, printer plotters and a photo composer working on a VM/168 computer.

Note –
If the form contains numerous geometric complications, the test might fail.



Gross convexity test :
Draw straight lines between geometric inner points — do they stay in polygon?
