Description: 

The goal of the CGAL-Python project is to provide Python bindings
for the CGAL library.
CGAL is the Computational Geometry Algorithms Library, a C++ library
of generic, efficient and robust geometric algorithms.

CGAL-Python is implemented using Boost.Python, which allows to mimic
a large part of the original C++ interface of CGAL.
Since CGAL is heavily based on the generic
programming paradigm (templates), some choices have been made
to accommodate the Python programming model instead. Python allows
much faster prototyping than C++, by simplifying the complexity of
the language and removing the typical long compilation times of C++.
We also hope that CGAL-Python can be used for teaching geometric algorithms,
without requiring knowledge of C++ as is currently the case with CGAL.
