 Point On Line - Line Hit Point - Point Intersect Line

    Point On Line / Line Hit Point /  Point Intersect Line

    This code defines a tLines data type that consists of four floating point numbers (x1#, y1#, x2#, y2#). It then creates an array of 100 elements of this data type called Lines.

    It then initializes each element of the Lines array by assigning random values to its x1#, y1#, x2#, and y2# fields.

    Afterwards, the code enters an infinite loop that does the following:

     Clears the screen

     Gets the current mouse position and assigns it to variables mx# and my#

     Iterates through each element lp in the Lines array and does the following:

     Assigns the x1#, y1#, x2#, and y2# fields of the current element to local variables x1#, y1#, x2#, and y2#, respectively

     Calls the Point_On_Line function, passing it mx#, my#, x1#, y1#, x2#, and y2# as arguments. The return value of this function is a boolean that indicates whether the point (mx#, my#) is on the line defined by the points (x1#, y1#) and (x2#, y2#).

     If the return value of Point_On_Line is True, it sets the current drawing color to a random RGB value.

     It then draws a line between the points (x1#, y1#) and (x2#, y2#) using the current drawing color.

     Waits for the vertical blanking interval (to prevent tearing)

     Loops back to the beginning if the space key is not pressed

    The code then defines the Point_On_Line function, which takes six floating point arguments: pointx#, pointy#, x1#, y1#, x2#, and y2#. It returns a boolean value indicating whether the point (pointx#, pointy#) is on the line defined by the points (x1#, y1#) and (x2#, y2#).

    The function first checks if the point (pointx#, pointy#) is at least parallel to the line defined by the points (x1#, y1#) and (x2#, y2#). If it is, it calculates the nearest point on the line to (pointx#, pointy#) and checks if the distance between the two points is within a certain tolerance (1 in this case). If the distance is within the tolerance, the function returns True, otherwise it returns False. If the point (pointx#, pointy#) was not parallel to the line, the function immediately returns False.
