On reading  User Manual <http://doc.cgal.org/latest/HalfedgeDS/index.html>  ,
I find that each edge is decomposed into two half edges with opposite
orientations.
In combinatorial maps, only the edges which are shared between faces have 2
darts associated with them and remaining edges have only one dart as shown
in the  Figure 24.2
<http://doc.cgal.org/latest/Combinatorial_map/index.html#fig__figexemplecombimaps>
 
(left figure). 

I have been assuming a dart to be equivalent to a half edge, but then Half
edge representation of this 2D object(Figure 24.2) will be different from
that using Combinatorial maps?
