Chris thank you for your quick reply.
The original example I posted used test data, below is as far as I
have gotten with real numbers.
from sympy.geometry import *
# Define a Line given two points p1 and p2.
p1 = Point(-694310.42867240659, 7051910.5392115889)
p2 = Point(-694286.161023414, 7051916.4164796043)
l = Line(p1, p2)
# Get the Segment perpendicular to l given p.
p = Point(-694210.80222825997, 7051914.7562929001)
s = l.perpendicular_segment(p)
distance = s.length
This throws the following error
In [61]: s = l.perpendicular_segment(p)
ERROR: An unexpected error occurred while tokenizing input
The following traceback may be corrupted or invalid
The error message is: ('EOF in multi-line statement', (102, 0))
In my attempt to figure out why this error is happening I devised the
below test.
l2 = l.perpendicular_line(p)
l.is_perpendicular(l2)
Out[56]: False
You might ask why my points have such large co-ordinates? They are
Points using the Google Spherical Merchant projection. As I said
originally I have been using PostGis and Django Geos for a long time.
This is the format of data that I work with.
Any ideas?
Kind Regards,
Cathal
