22 * We have many different classes that all seem to have something to do with
23 * lines. Let us here briefly explain which is which:
24 * -# Line A line represents a two-dimensional object in Space stretching from
25 * and to infinity on either end.
26 * -# LineSegment the segment of a line is defined through two points which form
27 * its start and end.
28 * -# LinePoint a point on a specific line, identifiable and more so, alignable
29 * by its parameter LinePoint::param.
30 * -# LineSegmentSet a continous set of segments of lines, i.e. such that the
31 * end point of the last is the starting point of the next.
