How can I determine whether a 2D Point is within a Polygon?

Question

I\'m trying to create a fast 2D point inside polygon algorithm, for use in hit-testing (e.g. Polygon.contains(p:Point)). Suggestions for effective tech

.Net port:

    static void Main(string[] args)
    {

        Console.Write("Hola");
        List vertx = new List();
        List verty = new List();

        int i, j, c = 0;

        vertx.Add(1);
        vertx.Add(2);
        vertx.Add(1);
        vertx.Add(4);
        vertx.Add(4);
        vertx.Add(1);

        verty.Add(1);
        verty.Add(2);
        verty.Add(4);
        verty.Add(4);
        verty.Add(1);
        verty.Add(1);

        int nvert = 6;  //Vértices del poligono

        double testx = 2;
        double testy = 5;


        for (i = 0, j = nvert - 1; i < nvert; j = i++)
        {
            if (((verty[i] > testy) != (verty[j] > testy)) &&
             (testx < (vertx[j] - vertx[i]) * (testy - verty[i]) / (verty[j] - verty[i]) + vertx[i]))
                c = 1;
        }
    }
