Geometry.Convex method (1 of 2)

Determines whether a polygon is considered Convex, where all interior angles are less than 180 degrees.

public static bool? Convex(this IList<Point> points)
parameter description
points List of points which define the boundaries of the polygon

Return Value

True if the polygon is Convex, false if it is Concave, and null if it cannot be computed.

Exceptions

exception condition
ArgumentException Thrown if the IList of points contains fewer than three elements.

Remarks

The polygon is assumed to be closed, with the last point in the array not being the same as the first point in the array.
