Tutorial Documents
We list several tutorials that may be useful in getting to know
CGAL. These tutorials are typically presented at a specific event. You
may find here the corresponding talk slides, other printed materials,
and example programs. Some of the material might be outdated over time
and might not work immediately with the latest CGAL release.
Comments are always welcome and may be directed to the authors of the
documents or info at cgal dot org.
