    • moveTowards Link icon

      public S1Point moveTowards(S1Point other, double ratio)
      Move towards another point.

      Motion is linear (along space curvature) and based on a ratio where 0.0 stands for not moving at all, 0.5 stands for moving halfway towards other point, and 1.0 stands for moving fully to the other point.

      Specified by:
      moveTowards in interface Point<Sphere1D,S1Point>
      Parameters:
      other - other point
      ratio - motion ratio,
      Returns:
      moved point
    • equals Link icon

      public boolean equals(Object other)
      Test for the equality of two points on the 1-sphere.

      If all coordinates of two points are exactly the same, and none are Double.NaN, the two points are considered to be equal.

      NaN coordinates are considered to affect globally the point and be equals to each other - i.e, if either (or all) coordinates of the point are equal to Double.NaN, the point is equal to NaN.

      Overrides:
      equals in class Object
      Parameters:
      other - Object to test for equality to this
      Returns:
      true if two points on the 1-sphere objects are equal, false if object is null, not an instance of S1Point, or not equal to this S1Point instance
    • equalsIeee754 Link icon

      public boolean equalsIeee754(Object other)
      Test for the equality of two points on the 1-sphere.

      If all coordinates of two points are exactly the same, and none are Double.NaN, the two points are considered to be equal.

      In compliance with IEEE754 handling, if any coordinates of any of the two points are NaN, then the points are considered different. This implies that S1Point.NaN.equals(S1Point.NaN) returns false despite the instance is checked against itself.

      Parameters:
      other - Object to test for equality to this
      Returns:
      true if two points objects are equal, false if object is null, not an instance of S1Point, or not equal to this S1Point instance
      Since:

    • hashCode Link icon

      public int hashCode()
      Get a hashCode for the point.

      All NaN values have the same hash code.

      Overrides:
      hashCode in class Object
      Returns:
      a hash code value for this object
