Zonotope

A zonotope is a convex polytope defined by the Minkowski sum of \(m\) \(d\)-dimensional segments.

Provides an R interface for 'volesti' C++ package. 'volesti' computes
estimations of volume of polytopes given by a set of points or linear inequalities
or Minkowski sum of segments (zonotopes). There are two algorithms for volume
estimation (I.Z. Emiris and V. Fisikopoulos (2014) <arXiv:1312.2873> and
B. Cousins, S. Vempala (2016) <arXiv:1409.6011>) as well as algorithms for sampling,
rounding and rotating polytopes. Moreover, 'volesti' provides algorithms for
estimating copulas (L. Cales, A. Chalkis, I.Z. Emiris, V. Fisikopoulos (2018)
<arXiv:1803.05861>).
