	Returns the source end point of this line segment.

const Point &	target () const
	Returns the target end point of this line segment.

void	set_source (const Point &s)
	Sets/Changes the source end point of this line segment.

void	set_target (const Point &t)
	Sets/Changes the target end point of this line segment.

Line	supporting_line () const
	Returns the supporting line of this line segment.

Vector	to_vector () const
	Returns a vector originating from source() and pointing to target().

Point	projection (const Point &p) const
	Returns the projection of a point `p` on the supporting line of this segment.

bool	projected_inside (const Point &p) const
	Tests if the projection of a point `p` is within the two end points of this segment.
