function res = clipPolyline(poly, box)
%CLIPPOLYLINE Clip an open polyline with a rectangular box.
%
%   POLY2 = clipPolyline(POLY, BOX);
%   POLY is N-by-2 array of vertex coordinates.
%   BOX has the form: [XMIN XMAX YMIN YMAX].
%   Returns the set of polylines created by the intersection of the
%   polyline POLY and the bounding box BOX. The result is a cell array with
%   as many cells as the number of curve clips.
%
%
%   Example
%     circle = [5 5 6];
%     poly = circleToPolygon(circle, 200);
%     box = [0 10 0 10];
%     res = clipPolyline(poly, box);
%     figure;
%     hold on; axis equal; axis([-2 12 -2 12]);
%     drawCircle(circle, 'b:')
%     drawBox(box, 'k')
%     drawPolyline(res, 'linewidth', 2, 'color', 'b')
