How would I use numpy to calculate the intersection between two line segments?
In the code I have segment1 = ((x1,y1),(x2,y2)) and segment2 = ((x1,
class Point:
def __init__(self, x, y):
self.x = x
self.y = y
'''
finding intersect point of line AB and CD
where A is the first point of line AB
and B is the second point of line AB
and C is the first point of line CD
and D is the second point of line CD

def get_intersect(A, B, C, D):
# a1x + b1y = c1
a1 = B.y - A.y
b1 = A.x - B.x
c1 = a1 * (A.x) + b1 * (A.y)
# a2x + b2y = c2
a2 = D.y - C.y
b2 = C.x - D.x
c2 = a2 * (C.x) + b2 * (C.y)
# determinant
det = a1 * b2 - a2 * b1
# parallel line
if det == 0:
return (float('inf'), float('inf'))
# intersect point(x,y)
x = ((b2 * c1) - (b1 * c2)) / det
y = ((a1 * c2) - (a2 * c1)) / det
return (x, y)
