这是基于Gareth Ree的回答。它还返回线段重叠的情况。用c++编写的V是一个简单的向量类。其中二维中两个向量的外积返回一个标量。通过了学校自动测试系统的测试。

//Required input point must be colinear with the line
bool on_segment(const V& p, const LineSegment& l)
{
    //If a point is on the line, the sum of the vectors formed by the point to the line endpoints must be equal
    V va = p - l.pa;
    V vb = p - l.pb;
    R ma = va.magnitude();
    R mb = vb.magnitude();
    R ml = (l.pb - l.pa).magnitude();
    R s = ma + mb;
    bool r = s <= ml + epsilon;
    return r;
}

//Compute using vector math
// Returns 0 points if the lines do not intersect or overlap
// Returns 1 point if the lines intersect
//  Returns 2 points if the lines overlap, contain the points where overlapping start starts and stop

许多答案把所有的计算都打包成一个函数。如果您需要计算直线斜率、y轴截距或x轴截距，以便在代码的其他地方使用，那么这些计算将是冗余的。我分离出了各自的函数，使用了明显的变量名，并注释了我的代码以使其更易于理解。我需要知道直线是否无限超出它们的端点，所以在JavaScript中:

    slope_bc = slope(point_b, point_c),
    slope_cd = slope(point_c, point_d),

问题C:如何检测两条线段是否相交?

我也搜索过同样的话题，但我对答案并不满意。所以我写了一篇文章，非常详细地解释了如何检查两条线段是否与大量图像相交。这是完整的(并经过测试的)java代码。

以下是这篇文章，截取了最重要的部分:

检查线段a是否与线段b相交的算法如下所示:

什么是边界框?下面是两个线段的边界框:

如果两个边界框都有交点，则移动线段a，使其中一点在(0|0)处。现在你有了一条经过a定义的原点的直线，现在以同样的方式移动线段b，检查线段b的新点是否在直线a的不同两侧。如果是这样，则反过来检查。如果也是这样，线段相交。如果不相交，它们就不相交。

问题A:两条线段在哪里相交?

你知道两条线段a和b相交。如果你不知道，用我在C题中给你的工具检查一下。

现在你可以通过一些情况，并得到解决与七年级数学(见代码和交互示例)。

问题B:你如何检测两条线是否相交?

假设点A = (x1, y1)点B = (x2, y2) C = (x_3, y_3) D = (x_4, y_4) 第一行由AB定义(A != B)，第二行由CD定义(C != D)。

function doLinesIntersect(AB, CD) {
    if (x1 == x2) {
        return !(x3 == x4 && x1 != x3);
    } else if (x3 == x4) {
        return true;
    } else {
        // Both lines are not parallel to the y-axis
        m1 = (y1-y2)/(x1-x2);
        m2 = (y3-y4)/(x3-x4);
        return m1 != m2;
    }
}

问题D:两条直线在哪里相交?

检查问题B，它们是否相交。

直线a和b由每条直线上的两个点定义。 你基本上可以用和问题A相同的逻辑。

上面有很多解决方案，但我认为下面的解决方案很简单，很容易理解。

矢量AB和矢量CD相交当且仅当

端点a和b在线段CD的两边。 端点c和d在线段AB的对边。

更具体地说，a和b在线段CD的对面当且仅当两个三元组中有一个是逆时针顺序的。

Intersect(a, b, c, d)
 if CCW(a, c, d) == CCW(b, c, d)
    return false;
 else if CCW(a, b, c) == CCW(a, b, d)
    return false;
 else
    return true;

这里的CCW代表逆时针，根据点的方向返回真/假。
