[Dune] Barycentric coordinates of a point w.r.t. an entity

[Sacconi, Andrea]

Hi everyone,

I have a quick question about barycentric coordinates. If you are given a point and an entity, is there a direct method in DUNE to get the barycentric coordinates of that point with respect to the vertices of the entity?
I need to determine if a point is inside or outside that entity, so if I don't get a convex combination, it goes without saying that the point is outside.

Thanks for your help!

Andrea
