Computational Geometry,his problem we develop an original metaphor based on the definition of the winding number, and we use it to design an algorithm that is easy to implement. Finally, we show another physical metaphor that can be used to triangulate a polygon easily.

Afterwards, we dedicate a section to the major caveats we should keep in mind when using metaphors. Finally, we focus on the use of metaphors rel

We discuss the abundance of flawed metaphors used in education for the queue data structure, and propose better metaphors that should be used for this purpose. In the second section, we give our original exposition of the one-dimensional facility location problem and its solution. Our
