Makes no difference in reducing the number of points #10

I have a dataframe which I want to reduce the number of points of every feature,

This is my dataframe

	recency	frequency	money
0	8.353111	1.625226	20.943134
1	2.934699	4.013015	26.170988
2	5.703040	4.013015	31.328091
3	4.958268	4.529335	42.014511
4	4.291614	5.502551	31.964992

Shape is 793,3 before rdp

After using RDP [ 8.35311112, 1.62522615, 20.94313392], [ 2.93469946, 4.01301524, 26.17098815], [ 5.70303988, 4.01301524, 31.32809134], ...,

Shape is 793,3 after rdp no change in output

The simplify_coords function did not work for me (see #11 ) but I found simpify_coords_vw returned the same number of points as were passed to it, regardless of how much I varied the second parameter.
