Name
packet (2-dimensional triangulation) — A 2-dimensional triangulation packet
Synopsis
Description
This type of triangulation packet stores a 2-dimensional triangulation (i.e., a triangulation of a 2-manifold).
The triangles forming this triangulation and their corresponding
edge gluings are specified by the child triangles
element.
Other optional child elements may store precalculated properties of
this triangulation.
The roles played by the child tag
and packet
elements are
described in the general packet
element documentation.
Note
Regina supports triangulations in many dimensions.
See also the elements packet
(3-dimensional triangulation),
packet
(4-dimensional triangulation), and packet
(dim
-dimensional triangulation).
