TABLE_DELAUNAY
Triangulate Points in 2D


TABLE_DELAUNAY is a MATLAB program which computes the Delaunay triangulation of a set of points in the plane.

Specifically, TABLE_DELAUNAY reads a data file of node coordinates, computes the Delaunay triangulation of those points, and writes a triangle file listing the indices of nodes that form each triangle.

Usage:

table_delaunay ( 'prefix' )
where 'prefix' is the common prefix for the node and triangle files,
