/**
 * http://www.geeksforgeeks.org/closest-pair-of-points-onlogn-implementation/
 * https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_pSl90jq-m0 another good explanation
 * Given coordinates of points find closest pair points distance.
 * 
 * Test cases:
 * Number of points should be more than 1
 * Test along positive and negative axis
 * 
 * The way it works is
 * 1) Sort by x coordinate
 * 2) Recursively divide into two halves.
 * 3) Find min distance between points in each half. Say this distance is d.
 * 4) Find points which are in either half and closer than d. To find this point sort by y
 * axis and find distance to next 6 points. Magic about 6 points is we can create a rectangular
 * area and only 6 points can fit in that rectangular area. So we need to check only 7 points
 * for each point in rectangular area.
