Quick Guide

To install jicgeometry:

sudo pip install jicgeometry

Create some points:

>>> from jicgeometry import Point2D
>>> p1 = Point2D(6, 1)
>>> p2 = Point2D(3, 5)

Find the distances between two points:

>>> p1.distance(p2)
5.0

Add/subtract points from each other:

>>> p1 + p2
<Point2D(x=9, y=6, dtype=int)>

Scale points using multiplication/division:

>>> p1 / 2.0
<Point2D(x=3.00, y=0.50, dtype=float)>

Treat points as vectors:

>>> p1.unit_vector
<Point2D(x=0.99, y=0.16, dtype=float)>
>>> round(p1.magnitude, 4)
6.0828
