Introduction

Intersection is a JavaScript object used to capture the results of the intersection of two Shape objects. Class methods perform the actual intersections and use only Point2D objects as parameters. This makes this class useful stand-alone uses where you don't want to use the 2D Geometry library.

The Ellipse-Ellipse intersection code is based on code written by David Eberly. That code and many more excellent examples are available at his site. If you are at all interested in 3D gaming algorithms, then I highly recommend his "3D Game Engine Design" book (ISBN 1-55860-593-2).

This code is used in the 2D Geometry section of this site.
