However, to my limited knowledge and the less limited searching on Google, for a triangle there is no such thing as an “orthocentercenter”, only an “orthocenter”.
In fact Googling seems to lead to pages which actually only use this Asymptote code!
I am also not sure whether there is any reason that the function had to be called “orthocentercenter”.
While we may need to retain the doubled name for backward compatibility, isn't it time for the simple straightforward actual name of “orthocenter” to be provided?
In Asymptote, there are the functions
orthocentercenter(triangle)
andorthocentercenter(point, point, point)
