The value is 1 if the line segment must turn counterclockwise to point at the specified point, -1 if it must turn clockwise, or 0 if the point lies exactly on the line segment.

Note that an indicator value of 0 is rare and not useful for determining colinearity because of floating point rounding issues.

If the point is colinear with the line segment, but not between the endpoints, then the value is -1 if the point lies "beyond (x1, y1)" or 1 if the point lies "beyond (x2, y2)". Note that an indicator value of 0 is rare and not useful for determining colinearity because of floating point rounding issues.
