Build instructions

General build directions can be found here.

Usage

`convex_hull_sample [S] [M[:N]] [-v]`
  S is the number of points (problem size). M:N are a range of numbers of threads to be used. Use the -v option to turn on verbose output.
To run a short version of this example, e.g., for use with Intel® Threading Tools:
  Build a debug version of the example (see the build instructions).
  Run it with a small problem size and the desired number of threads, e.g., `convex_hull_sample 500000 4`.
