`#include <CGAL/Triangulation_2.h>`

Inherited by CGAL::Triangulation_2< Traits, Tds >.

## Definition

The class `Triangulation_cw_ccw_2` offers two functions `int cw(int i)` and `int ccw(int i)` which, given the index of a vertex in a face, compute the index of the next vertex of the same face in clockwise or counterclockwise order.

This works also for neighbor indexes. Thus, for example the neighbor `neighbor(cw(i))` of a face `f` is the neighbor which is next to `neighbor(i)` turning clockwise around `f`. The face `neighbor(cw(i))` is also the first face encountered after `f` when turning clockwise around vertex `i` of `f`.

Many of the classes in the triangulation package inherit from `Triangulation_cw_ccw_2`. This is for instance the case for `CGAL::Triangulation_2::Face`. Thus, for example the neighbor `neighbor(cw(i))` of a face `f` is the neighbor which is next to `neighbor(i)` turning clockwise around `f`. The face `neighbor(cw(i))` is also the first face encountered after `f` when turning clockwise around vertex `i` of `f`.
