BOUNDINGBOX Bounding box of a set of points.

   BOX = boundingBox(POINTS)
   Returns the bounding box of the set of points POINTS. POINTS can be
   either a N-by-2 or N-by-3 array. The result BOX is a 1-by-4 or 1-by-6
   array, containing:
   [XMIN XMAX YMIN YMAX] (2D point sets)
   [XMIN XMAX YMIN YMAX ZMIN ZMAX] (3D point sets)

   Example
   % Draw the bounding box of a set of random points
     points = rand(30, 2);
     figure; hold on;
     drawPoint(points, '.');
     box = boundingBox(points);
     drawBox(box, 'r');

   % Draw bounding box of a cubeoctehedron
     [v e f] = createCubeOctahedron;
     box3d = boundingBox(v);
     figure; hold on;
     drawMesh(v, f);
     drawBox3d(box3d);
     set(gcf, 'renderer', 'opengl')
     axis([-2 2 -2 2 -2 2]);
