> > @ondrej Thanks for the quick reply . As you pointed out I have been working on the prototype for past few days and for the intersection of two lines it looks something like this: a = Line(Point(1,2,3),Point(2,3,4)) b = Line(Point(5,5,5),Point(-8,-6,-3)) a.interection(b) = Point(-1.5, -0.5, 0.5)
a.arbitrary_point() = Point(t+1,t+2,t+3) b.arbitrary_point('z') = Point(-13*z +5, -11*z+5, -8z+5) c=Line(Point(2,3), Point(3,5)) # Here the default value of z is taken as 0 a.intersection(c) Point(2,3,4) Apart from this I have been thinking about a class which does this x,y,z = map(Symbol, 'xyz') p1,p2,p3 = Point(x, y), Point(y, z), Point(2*x*y, y) Point.is_collinear(p1, p2, p3) this returns false but it is better to return this Points are collinear if z - y - 2*y*z + 2*y**2 == 0 This class should support the following methods at least: is_similar is_parallel is_concyclic is_perpendicular encloses_point is_tangent is_convex contains collinear -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
