Yes to workshop, no to presentation.
I've written some python versions of 2D geometric algorithms, not many.
They're very simple to enable a young person to understand the movement
& sweep of the data in creating a shape, intersecting two shapes, etc.
The data structures/objects used are very 'shallow' and uncomplicated.
But I'd love to expand on this to complete a lib2geom-type package for
those who
have neither time nor background to untie the gordian knot of geometric
mathematics.
