Primitive Geometric primitives generic over dimension Shape A trait for bounded and unbounded shapes. colinear_2d Returns true when three points lie on the same line in 2D space. colinear_2d_epsilon colinear_3d Returns true when three points lie on the same line in 3D space. colinear_3d_epsilon coplanar_3d Returns true when four points lie on the same plane in 3D space. coplanar_3d_epsilon determinant_3d Computes the determinant of a matrix formed by the three points as columns orthonormal_basis Create an orthonormal basis given the first basis component plane_side_3d Return a signum indicating which side of the triangle ABC that point D lies on,
where +1 indicates that D lies on the side that the normal $(B - A) \times (C - A)$
points to, -1 if D lies on the opposite side, and 0 if D lies on the plane ABC,
