I have an array in python with x,y points used to draw a polygon = feasible region. [[0.0, 10.0], [0.0, 20.0], [10.0, 0.0], [20.0, 0.0]] The problem is, I need the biggest area between the points to be filled. So I need to reorder the array so I'd have the proper order to draw the biggest polygon possible. The order is important as it connects the neighbour points in the array. I tried to sort the array by first element ascending, the second descending, but nothing seems to work. def scatterplot(points): points.sort(key=operator.itemgetter(0,1)) x1 = [] y1 = [] for p in range(0,len(points)): plt.plot(points[p][0],points[p][1],'go',markersize=10) x1.append(points[p][0]) y1.append(points[p][2]) plt.fill(x1,y1,'red',alpha=1) plt.show() I guess I'm missing something from math here. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks [[0.0, 10.0], [0.0, 20.0], [10.0, 0.0], [20.0, 0.0]] [[0.0, -0.0], [0.0, 4.0], [2.0, 0.0], [1.5, 2.0]] Continue reading...
