Given a collection of points P in the plane , a 1-set is a
point in P that can be separated from the rest by a line,
.i.e the point lies on one side of the line while the others
lie on the other side. The number of 1-sets of P is denoted
by n1(P). The MINIMUM value of n1(P) over all configurations
P of 5 points in the plane in general position (.i.e no
three points in P lie on a line) is
a) 3 b)5 c)2 d)8
