A novel method has been introduced to solve a point inclusion in a polygon problem. The method is applicable to convex as well as non-convex polygons which are not self-intersecting. The introduced method is independent of rounding off errors, which gives it a leverage over some methods prone to this problem. A brief summary of the methods used to solve this problem is presented and the introduced method is discussed. The introduced method is compared to other existing methods from the point of view of computational cost. This method was inspired from a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) application using grids not fitted to the simulated objects.
