Description

The line segment intersection problem supplies a list of line segments in the Euclidean plane and asks about the points where they intersect (cross), if any. In this case, we wish to report all points of intersection.

Related Problems

Generalizations: Reporting all intersection points, generalized segments

Subproblem: Counting number of intersection points, line segments

Related: Reporting all intersection points, convex polygons, Reporting all intersection points, general polygons

Parameters

n: number of line segments

k: number of points of intersection
