is_colinear

compas.geometry.is_colinear(a, b, c, tol=1e-06)

Determine if three points are colinear.

Parameters

• a ([x, y, z] or compas.geometry.Point) – Point 1.

• b ([x, y, z] or compas.geometry.Point) – Point 2.

• c ([x, y, z] or compas.geometry.Point) – Point 3.

• tol (float, optional) – A tolerance for membership verification. Default is 1e-6.

Returns

bool – True if the points are colinear. False otherwise.
