I implemented the algorithm by Pr. Chrystal described here in Haskell so could someone please tell me: Do i have implemented this algorithm correctly?
Initial calling of findPoints takes the first and second point of convex hull and the list of points on convex hull.

My second question is: I am trying to solve the problem on sphere online judge [link of problem in code below, because I can not post more than 2 links] using this algorithm but I'm getting the wrong answer.
The code for the problems is on ideone. Why am I getting the wrong answer.

findAngle :: ( Num a , Ord a , Floating a ) => Point a -> Point a -> Point  a  -> ( Point a , Point a , Point  a , a ) 
findAngle u@(P x0 y0 ) v@(P x1 y1 ) t@(P x2 y2)  
| u == t || v == t = ( u , v , t , 10 * pi )  -- two points are same so set the angle more than pi  
| otherwise =  ( u , v, t , ang ) where
        ang = acos ( ( b + c - a ) / ( 2 * sb * sc ) ) where 
        b = ( x0 - x2 ) ^ 2 + ( y0 - y2 ) ^ 2
        c = ( x1 - x2 ) ^ 2 + ( y1 - y2 ) ^ 2
        a = ( x0 - x1 ) ^ 2 + ( y0 - y1 ) ^ 2 
        sb = sqrt b
        sc = sqrt c 



findPoints :: ( Num a , Ord a , Floating a ) => Point a -> Point a -> [ Point  a ] -> ( Point a , Point a , Point a , a ) 
findPoints u v xs 
  | 2 * theta >= pi   =     ( a , b , t , theta ) 
  | and [ 2 * alpha <= pi , 2 * beta <= pi ]   = ( a , b , t , theta )  
  | otherwise = if 2 * alpha > pi then findPoints v t xs else findPoints u t xs 
     where   
       ( a , b , t , theta ) = minimumBy ( \(_,_,_, t1 ) ( _ , _ , _ ,t2 ) -> compare  t1 t2 ) . map ( findAngle u v )  $ xs 
       ( _ , _ , _ , alpha ) = findAngle v t u  --angle between v u t angle subtended at u by v t
       ( _ , _ , _ , beta ) = findAngle u t v   -- angle between u v t angle subtended at v by  u t

  • \$\begingroup\$ I have solved this problem. Accepted code of problem QCJ4 spoj on ideone. I hope Mihai don't need to give away his reputation points as bounty to any one :). \$\endgroup\$ Jul 29, 2011 at 16:05
  • \$\begingroup\$ Can you post solution below? (I'll give you the bounty in this case) \$\endgroup\$ Aug 2, 2011 at 7:30
  • \$\begingroup\$ @keep_learning: Now I got the bounty, which is not okay as I just posted some cosmetic changes, but AFAIK there is no way to give it back. If there is no other solution for that, at least I could start a 50 points bounty for a question of your choice... \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ @Landel I think your code lead me to write more concise Haskell code so you can think of these bounties as taken from me :) \$\endgroup\$ Aug 4, 2011 at 14:02

As per request by Mihai , here is the accepted code of spoj problem . The only error in previous code was " The minimal enclosing circle is determined by the diametric circle of S ". Instead of finding a circle passing through two points , i was calculating circle from three points.

Not an answer, just a small improvement (not tested):
