This article is a 'stub' page, it has no, or next to no, content. It is here at the moment to help form part of the structure of SklogWiki. If you add sufficient material to this article then please remove the {{Stub-general}} template from this page.

An shape of a set of points is given by the subset of points that are reached when "scooping out" portions of space with a certain spoon whose radius is given by the parameter (depending on the convention, can be the squared radius of the scoop, or its inverse). These shapes are closely related to Delaunay simplexes.
