// The following methods compute the winding number on each side of each facet
// or patch of a 3D mesh.  The input mesh is valid if it splits the ambient
// space, R^3, into subspaces with constant integer winding numbers.  That is
// the input mesh should be closed and for each directed edge the number of
// clockwise facing facets should equal the number of counterclockwise facing
// facets.

      // Compute winding number on each side of the face.  The input mesh
      // could contain multiple connected components.  The input mesh must
      // represent the boundary of a valid 3D volume, which means it is
      // closed, consistently oriented and induces integer winding numbers.

      // Inputs:
      //   V  #V by 3 list of vertex positions.
      //   F  #F by 3 list of triangle indices into V.
      //   labels  #F list of facet labels ranging from 0 to k-1.
      // Output:
      //   W  #F by k*2 list of winding numbers.  ``W(i,j*2)`` is the winding
      //      number on the positive side of facet ``i`` with respect to the
      //      facets labeled ``j``.  Similarly, ``W(i,j*2+1)`` is the winding
      //      number on the negative side of facet ``i`` with respect to the
      //      facets labeled ``j``.
      // Returns true iff the input induces a piecewise-constant winding number
      //   field.
