NPlane Class Reference

Detailed Description

A NPlane is some subspace of nDimensional space defined by between 1 and nDim HyperPoints. e.g. to 3D space, you could have a point, a line, or a plane (defined by 1, 2 and 3 points respectively)

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

NPlane::NPlane

(

const HyperPointSet &

a

)

Standard constuctor that takes between 1 and nDim HyperPoints. Internally this is converted into an origin and between 0 and (nDim - 1) vectors.

Definition at line 6 of file NPlane.cpp.

NPlane::NPlane	(	const HyperPoint &	origin,
		const HyperPointSet &	v
	)

Constuctor that takes between an origin, and between 0 and (nDim - 1) vectors.

Member Function Documentation

int NPlane::getDimension ( ) const

inline

get the dimensionality

Definition at line 45 of file NPlane.h.

virtual const HyperPoint& NPlane::getDirection ( int  i = 0 ) const

inlinevirtual

get one of the vectors that defines the NPlane

Definition at line 54 of file NPlane.h.

int NPlane::getN ( ) const

inline

get the number of vectors that define the NPlane

Definition at line 47 of file NPlane.h.

const HyperPoint& NPlane::getOrigin ( ) const

inline

get the origin of the NPlane

Definition at line 51 of file NPlane.h.

HyperPoint NPlane::getParametricPoint

(

const HyperPoint &

t

)

const

The subspace is defined by (O + x.v_1 + y.v_2 + z.v_3 ...) - a point in this space is then defined by the `ParametricPoint' (x,y,z...). This function takes (x,y,z...) and returns (O + x.v_1 + y.v_2 + z.v_3 ...)

Definition at line 40 of file NPlane.cpp.

void NPlane::print ( std::ostream &  os = std::cout, int  endline = 1  ) const

virtual

Print out the origin and vectors that define the NPlane

Reimplemented in HyperPlane, and HyperLine.
