Greetings S'ers;
does anyone know of an S-function to calculate the overlap area between two
polygons (not necessarily convex)? My problem is a little easier than the
general case in that my polygons are placed on the x-axis, rather than being
arbitrarily positioned, and in that x(i+1) is always >= x(i).
Thanks for any help,
Duncan
