Many algorithms for clipping a line by a rectangular area or a convex polygon in E2 or by a
non-convex or convex polyhedron in E3 have been published. The line segment clipping by
the rectangular window in E2 is often restricted to the use of the Cohen-Sutherland (CS)
algorithm or its modifications based on some presumptions like small clipping window or
more sophisticated coding technique, etc. The line clipping problem solution is a bottleneck
of many packages and applications and, therefore, it would be desirable to use the fastest …
