Smallest circle set points [Help]

By Nuu, 7 years ago, In English

Hi guys, i'm trying solve this problem.

The resume is: given a set of points, print the smallest circle that cover all points.

I'm searching, but only find aproximate algorithms.

Somebody know a algoritm without aproximate?

Thanks for advice.

Exact algorithms are described in Smallest-circle problem.

On a side note see this problem too . A slightly modified version of smallest enclosing circle : https://www.codechef.com/problems/CHEFCIRC

You can use nested ternary search though it is O(nlogC^2)
