Computational-Geometry

This repository is devoted for learning computational geometry using two of the top frameworks: Polymake, and CGAL. All the files, are based on the first three chapters of the book "Lectures on Polytopes" from Gunter Ziegler.

Installation

Polymake

Please, refer to this link to install polymake on your computer. After installation, start polymake either from the command line or double-clicking the app icon. Then, open jupyter notebook and check the polymake engine is running. Polymake uses Perl.

CGAL

Please, refer to this link to install CGAL on your computer. Do not forget to download the CGAL examples, they might be useful.

Motivation

Provide a go-to and understandable set of files for undergraduate or graduate students that want to learn computational geometry.
