Class FunctionType

java.lang.Object
  visad.MathType
      visad.FunctionType

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class FunctionType
extends MathType

FunctionType is the VisAD data type for functions.

A Function domain type may be either a RealType (for a function with domain = R) or a RealTupleType (for a function with domain = R^n for n > 0).

Field Summary

static FunctionType	REAL_1TO1_FUNCTION
static FunctionType	REAL_1TO3_FUNCTION
static FunctionType	REAL_1TO4_FUNCTION

Constructor Summary

FunctionType(MathType domain, MathType range)
domain must be a RealType or a RealTupleType; range may be any MathType

Method Summary

MathType	binary(MathType type, int op, Vector names)
ShadowType	buildShadowType(DataDisplayLink link, ShadowType parent)
MathType	cloneDerivative(RealType d_partial)
boolean	equals(Object type) ScalarTypes are equal if they have the same name; TupleTypes are equal if their components are equal; FunctionTypes are equal if their domains and ranges are equal
boolean	equalsExceptName(MathType type) this is useful for determining compatibility of Data objects for binary mathematical operations; any RealTypes are equal; any TextTypes are equal; TupleTypes are equal if their components are equal; FunctionTypes are equal if their domains and ranges are equal
boolean	equalsExceptNameButUnits(MathType type)
RealTupleType	getDomain() if the domain passed to constructor was a RealType, getDomain returns a RealTupleType with that RealType as its single component

Constructor Detail

FunctionType

public FunctionType(MathType domain,
                    MathType range)
             throws VisADException

domain must be a RealType or a RealTupleType; range may be any MathType

Throws:

VisADException

Method Detail

getTextComponents

public TextType[] getTextComponents()

getTextIndices

public int[] getTextIndices()

getDomain

public RealTupleType getDomain()

if the domain passed to constructor was a RealType, getDomain returns a RealTupleType with that RealType as its single component

getRange

public MathType getRange()

getFlat

public boolean getFlat()

getReal

public boolean getReal()

getFlatRange

public RealTupleType getFlatRange()

getRealComponents

public RealType[] getRealComponents()

equals

public boolean equals(Object type)

Description copied from class: MathType

ScalarTypes are equal if they have the same name; TupleTypes are equal if their components are equal; FunctionTypes are equal if their domains and ranges are equal

Specified by:

equals in class MathType

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns the hash code of this instance. If equals(Object type), then hashCode() == type.hashCode().

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

Returns:

The hash code of this instance.

equalsExceptName

public boolean equalsExceptName(MathType type)

Description copied from class: MathType

this is useful for determining compatibility of Data objects for binary mathematical operations; any RealTypes are equal; any TextTypes are equal; TupleTypes are equal if their components are equal; FunctionTypes are equal if their domains and ranges are equal

Specified by:

equalsExceptName in class MathType

equalsExceptNameButUnits

public boolean equalsExceptNameButUnits(MathType type)
                                 throws VisADException

Specified by:

equalsExceptNameButUnits in class MathType

Throws:

VisADException
