Could you please help me with the minimal example to start using the library?
I have managed to quickly hack tests/intersection1.cc to provide you with a non-trivial example: call the file below the signature "inters.cc" and compile it with g++ -W -Wall -o inters inters.cc -lppl -lgmpcc -lgmp All the best, Roberto -- Prof. Roberto Bagnara Computer Science Group Department of Mathematics, University of Parma, Italy http://www.cs.unipr.it/~bagnara/ mailto:bagnara@cs.unipr.it /* Intersection of an icosahedron with a column.
