Either approach should work in principle (pycddlib vs. cddlib), but I suspect that the Python wrapper is higher-level, and will be easier to use from Julia. For reference, here's a snippet of how you might calculate the extreme points as rationals, calling pycddlib from Julia (adapted from code from Miles): https://gist.github.com/joehuchette/10396014
A computational geometry package in Julia would be a godsend for me (right now I'm working in Perl which is...not ideal), but I agree that it would be quite a bit of work. Certainly on my radar, though. On Thursday, April 10, 2014 5:49:16 AM UTC-4, Stéphane Laurent wrote: > > Again, thank you for all these answers.
