How can I check if two segments intersect?

The equation of a line is: For a segment, it is exactly the same, except that x is included on an interval I. If you have two segments, defined as follow: The abcisse Xa of the potential point of intersection (Xa,Ya) must be contained in both interval I1 and I2, defined as follow : And … Read more

Does Numpy automatically detect and use GPU?

Does Numpy/Python automatically detect the presence of GPU and utilize it to speed up matrix computation (e.g. numpy.multiply, numpy.linalg.inv, … etc)? No. Or do I have code in a specific way to exploit the GPU for fast computation? Yes. Search for Numba, CuPy, Theano, PyTorch or PyCUDA for different paradigms for accelerating Python with GPUs.
