Hexagonal maps are an abstract way to represent territories.
You draw a hexagon by rotating the user space by 60 degrees each time. Let's create a hexagon operator that works like the arc operator
To create a map, we need to calculate the distances. We create a transhex operator that maps from cartesian to hex coordinates.
Now we build an operator to add text in the center.
And now we try to map the cantons. Make it beautiful is more difficult, however.
