intersection coordinates to the grid available by finite-precision
arithmetic. This is one algorithm we have not implemented yet.
We use a data-structure called Skiplists in the our implementation

From the result of the intersection-finding pass, we are currently

undergoing some work right now with some important speedup), but we
