=====Description:=====
 
Detect intersections of a simple-polygon with a straight line.
 
=====Parameters:=====
 
;<var>XS</var>
 
:The polygon stream containing the simple polygon, or point list describing the simple polygon.
 
;<var>IX</var>
 
:The index of the polygon describing the simple polygon.
 
;<var>X1, Y1</var>
 
:The x/y coordinate of the first point in the line.
 
;<var>X2, Y2</var>
 
:The x/y coordinate of the last point in the line.
 
=====Result:=====
 
Detect intersections of the line <<var>X1</var>,<var>Y1</var>>..<<var>X2</var>,<var>Y2</var>> and the polygon <var>XS</var>[<var>IX</var>].
 
The result <var>IS</var> is an "N x 3" matrix:
 
row 0: col0,col1 x and y of start-point
 
col2 0 if start-point outside and 1 if start-point inside the polygon
 
...
 
row i: col0,col1 x and y of intersection point i (i = 1 .. N-2)
 
col2 0 if the line leaves and 1 if the line enters the polygon
 
...
 
row N-1: col0,col1 x and y of end-point
 
col2 0 if end-point outside and 1 if end-point inside the polygon

Find all intersections of a line, defined by two points, with a polygon.

Usage
pgiline(X, IX, PX1scalar, PY1scalar), PX2scalar, PY2scalar)
X
a closed point-list or a polygon-stream defining one or more polygons.
IX
The index of the polygon of X to be tested; 0 ≤ IX < pgget(X)
PX1, PY1, PX2, PY2
The points <PX1,PY1> and <PX2,PY2> defining the line to be tested.
Result
The result r is a Nx3 matrix. Each row of the matrix contains the coordinates of a point of the line and its state.
i r[i,0], r[i,1] r[i,2]
0 start point of the line 0 if the start point is outside XIX
1 if the start point is inside XIX
1 .. N-2 intersection point 0 if the line leaves XIX
1 if the line enters XIX
N-1 end point of the line 0 if the end point is outside XIX
1 if the end point is inside XIX
