Determine if point is within bounding box

Question

How would you determine if a given point is within the bounding box?

My point is 48.847172 , 2.386597.

Boundingbox:

    \"48.7998602295\",
           


        

Answer 1

There are quite nice utility methods for CGRect and CGPoint (assuming you don't mind fact that they are using CGFloat for storing coordinates - and looking at your values, you don't :-) ).

You can do it like that:

// Create bounding box
CGRect area = CGRectMake(x, y, width, height);

// Define point
CGPoint point = CGPointMake(pX, pY);

/Check
BOOL isInside = CGRectContainsPoint(area, point);
