Sep 22, 2013 at 7:43 comment added Mr.Wizard @HerngYi Yes, that's exactly what it does. You can select @@ in the Front End and press F1 key to bring up the page for Apply. You could also use this reference to find the same page.
Sep 22, 2013 at 5:21 comment added Herng Yi Sorry but I couldn't find the documentation on the @@ operator - does it do something like replacing the header of an expression? Would be great if you could link me to some documentation on this.
Sep 22, 2013 at 4:23 comment added E.O. @HerngYi you can extract the coordinates using List @@ randompoly
Sep 22, 2013 at 3:47 comment added Herng Yi the output polygons of randompoly also seem to have a "fat center" as compared to the output of @ybeltukov's answer. But I see this as a minor issue.
Sep 22, 2013 at 3:08 comment added Herng Yi I have tested your code and it works, but the output of randompoly is not a list poly = {pt1, ..., ptn} of 2D coordinates, but a graphics primitive Polygon[poly]. This hinders manipulation of the output polygon, unless there is a way to "unwrap" the raw data from Polygon?
