Description:
Checks if a point is inside a polygon defined by multiple vertices.


Parameters:

(px, py, x1, y1, x2, y2, ...)

px, py: The coordinates of the point to be checked.
x1, y1: The coordinates of the first vertex of the polygon.
x2, y2: The coordinates of the second vertex of the polygon.
...: The coordinates of subsequent vertices of the polygon.
