Question

Write the pseudocode for Graham scan algorithm and trace it for the points provided in the diagram below. Assume that the points are numbered from $P_1$ to $P_{12}$ in the ascending order of the counterclockwise polar angle they make with the horizontal line passing through $p_1$.

Step 1

Sort the points in ascending order of their counterclockwise polar angle with P1. - P1 is the starting point, so it remains in the list. - Sort the remaining points (P2, P3, P4, P5) based on their counterclockwise polar angle with P1. Sorted list: P1, Show more…
