> It would be nice to have convex hull implementations for 2D/3D space. There are several known algorithms [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convex_hull_algorithms]:
>  * Graham scan: O(n log n)
>  * Incremental: O(n log n)
>  * Divide and Conquer: O(n log n)
>  * Kirkpatrick-Seidel: O(n log h)
>  * Chan: O(n log h)
> The preference would be on an algorithm that is easily extensible for higher dimensions, so *Incremental* and *Divide and Conquer* would be prefered.
