Routine details
topperimeter
Compute the perimeter of a polygon defined by a set of x/y points
Return value
Perimeter defined by connecting x/y pairs. The perimeter includes the line segment from the last x/y pair to the first x/y pair.
METHOD SUMMARY: The length of the line segment connecting each x/y pair is computed using the pythagorean theorem in double precision. Lengths are summed.
Parameters
- x in required
List of x points
- y in required
List of y points
