+"""
+The algorithm finds distance btw closest pair of points in the given n points.
+Approach used -> Divide and conquer 
+The points are sorted based on Xco-ords 
+& by applying divide and conquer approach, 
+minimum distance is obtained recursively.
+
+>> closest points lie on different sides of partition
+This case handled by forming a strip of points 
+whose Xco-ords distance is less than closest_pair_dis
+from mid-point's Xco-ords.
+Closest pair distance is found in the strip of points. (closest_in_strip)
+
+min(closest_pair_dis, closest_in_strip) would be the final answer.
+ 
+Time complexity: O(n * (logn)^2)
