        true if the coordinate form a ring.

      • increasingDirection

        public static int increasingDirection​(Coordinate[] pts)

        Parameters:
        pts - the array of Coordinates to test
        Returns:
        1 if the array is smaller at the start or is a palindrome, -1 if smaller at the end
