The point is outside when this "crossing number" is even; otherwise, when it is odd, the point is inside.
If this number is even, then the point is outside; otherwise, when the crossing number is odd, the point is inside.
However, the validity of the crossing number method is based on the "Jordan Curve Theorem" which says that a simple closed curve divides the 2D plane into exactly 2 connected components: a bounded "inside" one and an unbounded "outside" one.

  Crossing number - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tables of prime knots are traditionally indexed by crossing number, with a subscript to indicate which particular knot out of those with this many crossings is meant (this sub-ordering is not based on anything in particular, except that torus knots are listed first).
The crossing number cr(G) of a graph G is the lowest number of crossings of a planar diagram of the graph G.
In general, determining the crossing number of a graph is hard; Garey and Johnson showed in 1983 that it is an NP-hard problem.
