%HEXAGONALGRID Generate hexagonal grid of points in the plane.

%   usage
%   PTS = hexagonalGrid(BOUNDS, ORIGIN, SIZE)
%   generate points, lying in the window defined by BOUNDS (=[xmin ymin
%   xmax ymax]), starting from origin with a constant step equal to size.
%   SIZE is constant and is equals to the length of the sides of each
%   hexagon.
