Checking if a point is inside a polygon (integer version)

//  The function will return True if the point x,y is inside the polygon, or
//  False if it is not.

var
  xnew, ynew: Cardinal;
  xold,yold: Cardinal;

  x2,y2: Cardinal;
  i, npoints: Integer;
  inside: Integer = 0;
begin
  Result := False;
  npoints := Length(APolygon);
  if (npoints < 3) then Exit;
  xold := APolygon[npoints-1].X;
  yold := APolygon[npoints-1].Y;
  for i := 0 to npoints - 1 do
  begin
    xnew := APolygon[i].X;
    ynew := APolygon[i].Y;

    end
    else

    end;
    if (((xnew < AX) = (AX <= xold))         // edge "open" at left end
      and ((AY-y1)*(x2-x1) < (y2-y1)*(AX-x1))) then
