## @deftypefnx {Function File} {@var{H} =} convhull (@var{x}, @var{y}, @var{options})
## Compute the convex hull of the set of points defined by the
## arrays @var{x} and @var{y}.  The hull @var{H} is an index vector into
## the set of points and specifies which points form the enclosing hull.
##
## An optional third argument, which must be a string or cell array of strings,
## contains options passed to the underlying qhull command.
## See the documentation for the Qhull library for details
## @url{http://www.qhull.org/html/qh-quick.htm#options}.
## The default option is @code{@{"Qt"@}}.
##
## If @var{options} is not present or @code{[]} then the default arguments are
## used.  Otherwise, @var{options} replaces the default argument list.
## To append user options to the defaults it is necessary to repeat the
## default arguments in @var{options}.  Use a null string to pass no arguments.
