    The Delaunay triangulation can be produced in \(O(n\log n)\) worst-case time, and often even faster, by several practical algorithms. The authors show that for any planar point set \(S\), if the Delaunay triangulation of \(S\) is given, then the greedy triangulation of \(S\) can be computed in linear worst-case time.
