function [vertices, faces] = steinerPolytope(vectors)
%STEINERPOLYTOPE Create a steiner polytope from a set of vectors.
%
%   [VERTICES FACES] = steinerPolygon(VECTORS)
%   Creates the Steiner polytope defined by the set of vectors VECTORS.
%
%   Example
%     % Creates and display a planar Steiner polytope (ie, a polygon)
%     [v f] = steinerPolytope([1 0;0 1;1 1]);
%     fillPolygon(v);
%
%     % Creates and display a 3D Steiner polytope 
%     [v f] = steinerPolytope([1 0 0;0 1 0;0 0 1;1 1 1]);
%     drawMesh(v, f);
%     view(3); axis vis3d
