![The expected number of points on a convex hull](https://blogs.sas.com/content/iml/files/2021/12/convexhullNumPts3-640x336.png)
While discussing how to compute convex hulls in SAS with a colleague, we wondered how the size of the convex hull compares to the size of the sample. For most distributions of points, I claimed that the size of the convex hull is much less than the size of the
