convert points into SHP polygons

Dear Robert,
My method to generate the Voronoi tessellation maybe not better, You  
can
show me you method to get it.
 What i want to get is the the class of SpatialPolygons(sp) based on  
the
generated Voronoi tessellation.
 Any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

 Yes, what i want is really the Voronoi tessellation that you  
showed in
the link. I can generate the Voronoi tessellation  (see my codes),  
but my
problem is how to generate the the class of SpatialPolygons(sp)  
based on the
generated  Voronoi tessellation? (SHP means shape file of polygon.)
 Thanks a lot.
####My code to get the Voronoi tessellation########
library(spatstat)
win<-owin(c(0,1),c(0,1))
pp <- runifpoint(10,win=win)
#plot(pp)
library(tripack)
vm <- voronoi.mosaic(pp$x,pp$y)
plot(vm)
par(new=T)
points(pp$x,pp$y,col='blue')
axis(1,xlim=c(0,1)) #1=below
axis(2,ylim=c(0,1)) #2=left
box(xlim=c(0,1),ylim=c(0,1))

I think you want a Voronoi tessalation (diagram):

But what are SHP polygons?  Is 'SHP' a class in an R package?

To make this problem more clear. Suppose i have some points in a

certain

area (e.g. 10 points in a unit square), how to cut and generate the
corresponding SHP polygons of containing the points (1 point in 1

polygon,

maybe the point as their centroid) in this certain area?
In GeoDa, there is a menu "tools->shape->point  to polygon" to  
achieve
that. I wonder how to do that in R. Thanks a lot.
##Example##
win<-owin(c(0,1),c(0,1))
pp <- runifpoint(10) #generate 10 points
#i want to change these 10 points into 10 SHP polygons,something  
like

the

manipulation in GeoDA, "tools->shape->point  to polygon"
#plot(pp)

Hi,
 I always need to convert between the points and polygons. For

converting

the polygons to points, we can use the "get.Pcent(maptools) " to  
get

the

centroids of the polygons. But for converting points to polygons

(something

like GeoDa's "tools->shape->point  to polygon"), i cannot find the
corresponding method. I searched in R Site Search with "point to

polygon"

and "generate polygon", but still cannot get the answers.
Does anybody know how to convert points to the SHP polygons?
OR whether we can generate some SHP polygons randomly in R?
##Example##
win<-owin(c(0,1),c(0,1))
pp <- runifpoint(10) #generate 10 points
#i want to change these 10 points into 10 SHP polygons,something  
like

the

manipulation in GeoDA, "tools->shape->point  to polygon"
#plot(pp)
 Thanks a lot.
