"""
Three distinct points are plotted at random on a Cartesian plane,
for which -1000 ≤ x, y ≤ 1000, such that a triangle is formed.

Consider the following two triangles:

A(-340,495), B(-153,-910), C(835,-947)

X(-175,41), Y(-421,-714), Z(574,-645)

It can be verified that triangle ABC contains the origin, whereas
triangle XYZ does not.

Using triangles.txt (right click and 'Save Link/Target As...'), a 27K text
file containing the coordinates of one thousand "random" triangles, find
the number of triangles for which the interior contains the origin.

NOTE: The first two examples in the file represent the triangles in the
example given above.
