Notation of maximization in pseudocode

52 Views Asked by At

I'm working on the implementation of a simple algorithm. See this small excerpt:

enter image description here

S is a set of points from which I have to choose point p.

I am confused as how to find p. I know how to calculate the radius and angle mentioned for each point in S. I can find the point with the maximum radius( before(p), p, after(p)), and the same for the angle.

But what does it mean to maximize both, written as maximizing (radius, angle).
