TRIANGULATION_ORIENT - Positively Orient Triangles

TRIANGULATION_ORIENT <br> Positively Orient Triangles
</h1>
<hr>
<p>
<b>TRIANGULATION_ORIENT</b>
is a MATLAB program which
reads a triangulation, and reorients each triangle that
has a negative area. If at least one such triangle is encountered,
the program writes out a new copy of the triangle file in which
all the triangles have been correctly oriented.
</p>
<p>
The input file <i>prefix</i>_nodes.txt contains the node information
for the triangulation. Each data line contains the X and
Y coordinates of a single node.
</p>
<p>
The input file <i>prefix</i>_elements.txt contains the triangle information
for the triangulation. Each line contains the indices of 3 or 6
nodes that form a triangle.
</p>
<p>
For many applications, including computer graphics and finite
element computations, it is assumed that the triangles are
described with a positive orientation. That is, the nodes
are listed in clockwise order.
</p>
<p>
<b>TRIANGULATION_ORIENT</b> can check whether every triangle
in a triangulation has positive orientation, and can "repair"
the file if it finds one or more triangles with a negative orientation.
</p>
<p>
