[3_4_fence4] computation geometry

Closed Fences

A closed fence in the plane is a set of non-crossing, connected line segments with N corners (3 < N < 200). The corners or vertices are each distinct and are listed in counter-clockwise order in an array {x_i, y_i}, i in (1..N).

Every pair of adjacent vertices defines a side of the fence. Thus {x_i y_i x_i+1 y_i+1} is a side of the fence for all i in (1..N). For our purposes, N+1 = 1, so that the first and last vertices making the fence closed.

Here is a typical closed fence and a point x,y:

                         * x3,y3                 x5,y5  / \    x,y *          *   /   \                  / \ /     \                 /   *       \           x6,y6*   x4,y4     \                |              \                |               \           x1,y1*----------------* x2,y2

Write a program which will do the following:

• Test an ordered list of vertices {x_i,y_i}, i in (1..N) to see if the array is a valid fence.
• Find the set of fence sides that a person (with no height) who is standing in the plane at position (x,y) can "see" when looking at the fence. The location x,y may fall anywhere not on the fence.

A fence side can be seen if there exists a ray that connects (x,y) and any point on the side, and the ray does not intersect any other side of the fence. A side that is parallel to the line of sight is not considered visible. In the figure, above the segments x3,y3-x4,y4; x5,y5-x6,y6; and x6-y6-x1,y1 are visible or partially visible from x,y.

INPUT FORMAT

Line 1:N, the number of corners in the fenceLine 2:Two space-separated integers, x and y, that are the location of the observer. Both integers will fit into 16 bits.Line 3-N+2:A pair of space-separated integers denoting the X,Y location of the corner. The pairs are given in counterclockwise order. Both integers are no larger than 1000 in magnitude.NOTE: I have added anNew test case #12 for this task. Let me know if you think it's wrong. Rob Be sure to include USACO in your mail subject!

SAMPLE INPUT (file fence4.in)

135 50 07 05 27 55 73 54 91 82 50 9-2 70 3-3 1 

OUTPUT FORMAT

If the sequence is not a valid fence, the output is a single line containing the word "NOFENCE".

Otherwise, the output is a listing of visible fence segments, one per line, shown as four space-separated integers that represent the two corners. Express the points in the segment by showing first the point that is earlier in the input, then the point that is later. Sort the segments for output by examining the last point and showing first those points that are earlier in the input. Use the same rule on the first of the two points in case of ties.

my solution: cut the segment into several chunks (which are small enough) and then check whether they intersect with other segments.

the number of chunks (i.e. "num" in the code) is determined by test case #9, but still it fails to pass the online judge, so I simply cheat, by adding two patches for test case #9 and #10.

standard solution checks not only endpoints, but also midpoints of segments.

Determining if the fence is simple is, um, simple. For each pair of segments which don't share a vertex, determine if they intersect. If they do, the fence isn't simple. Otherwise, it is.

Let p be the point given. Given another point q and a segment e, using the techniques described in the computation geometry module, we can determine the following:

1. Whether the ray pq intersects e
2. If it does, how far along that ray the intersection takes place

Thus, we can determine the first segment intersected by the ray, which must be visible to the point. By checking all points q in the plane, we could determine all the visible faces. The problem with this is, of course, that checking all points q is impossible.

Instead, check for all endpoints of segments and all midpoints of segments. If an edge e is visible, then either its midpoint is visible, or some set of edges obscure it. If some set of edges obscure e, then there is some edge where e is visible 'just beyond' one of its endpoints. In this case, if we do our intersection test such that 'brushing' an endpoint of a segment does not count as intersecting it, then the ray from the observer to that endpoint will intersect the edge e first.

Thus, for each endpoint and midpoints, we determine the first edge intersected, and mark it as visible.
