How to generate random vertices to form a convex polygon in c++?

Question

I need to generate a set of vertices for a simple convex polygon to do a minimum weight triangluation for that polygon using dynamic programming , I thought about taking a c

Answer 1

Generate your 20 random numbers between 0 and 2*pi, and sort them.

Now use a little basic trigonometry to convert to X,Y coordinates.

for (int i = 0; i < 20; i++)
{
    x = x0 + r*cos(angle[i]);
    y = y0 + r*sin(angle[i]);
    // ...
}
