+# shape_starburst
+
+Returns shape points of a star. They can be used with xxx_extrude modules of dotSCAD. The shape points can be also used with the built-in polygon module. 
+
+## Parameters
+
+- `r1` : The outer radius of the starburst. 
+- `r2` : The inner radius of the starburst.
+- `n`  : The number of vertices. 
+
+
+## Examples
+
+	include <shape_starburst.scad>;
+	
+	polygon(shape_starburst(30, 12, 6));
