Example

from MinimumBoundingBox import MinimumBoundingBox

points = ( (1,2), (5,4), (-1,-3) )
bounding_box = MinimumBoundingBox(points)  # returns namedtuple

bounding_box.area  # 16
bounding_box.rectangle_center  # (1.3411764705882352, 1.0647058823529414)
bounding_box.corner_points  # {(5, 4), (-1, -3), (-2.32, -1.87), (3.68, 5.13)}

MinimumBoundingBox(points)
Returns the properties of the bounding box

• area: area of the rectangle
• length_parallel: length of the side that is parallel to unit_vector
• length_orthogonal: length of the side that is orthogonal to unit_vector
• rectangle_center: coordinates of the rectangle center
  • use rectangle_corners to get the corner points of the rectangle
• unit_vector: direction of the length_parallel side. RADIANS
  • it's orthogonal vector can be found with the orthogonal_vector function
• unit_vector_angle: angle of the unit vector
• corner_points: set that contains the corners of the rectangle
