Method Detail

getScaleMinimum

public double getScaleMinimum()

Description copied from interface: Scale

Returns the minimum scale value for this Scale.

Specified by:

getScaleMinimum in interface Scale

Returns:

double the minimum scale value

getScaleMaximum

public double getScaleMaximum()

Description copied from interface: Scale

Returns the maximum scale value for this Scale.

Specified by:

getScaleMaximum in interface Scale

Returns:

double the maximum scale value

getScaleRange

public double getScaleRange()

Description copied from interface: Scale

Returns the scale range for this Scale. The scale range is defined as the interval between the minimum scale value and the maximum scale value. The mathematical expression for this is:
maximum scale value - minimum scale value.

Specified by:

getScaleRange in interface Scale

Returns:

double the scale range

getScaleFactor

public double getScaleFactor(double minimum,
                             double maximum)

Description copied from interface: Scale

Returns the scale factor that converts a value from the range of this Scale to the range given by minimum and maximum. The mathematical expression for this is:
(maximum - minimum) / (maximum scale value - minimum scale value) .

Specified by:

getScaleFactor in interface Scale

Parameters:

minimum - the minimum value of the range to convert to

maximum - the maximum value of the range to convert to

Returns:

double the scale factor

getDescaleFactor

public double getDescaleFactor(double minimum,
                               double maximum)

Description copied from interface: Scale

Returns the scale factor that converts a value from the range given by minimum and maximum to range of this Scale. The mathematical expression for this is:
(maximum scale value - minimum scale value) / (maximum - minimum) .

Specified by:

getDescaleFactor in interface Scale

Parameters:

minimum - the minimum value of the range to convert from

maximum - the maximum value of the range to convert from

Returns:

double the descale factor

scale

public double scale(double minimum,
                    double maximum,
                    double valueToScale)

Description copied from interface: Scale

Converts the value given by valueToScale from the range of this Scale to the range given by minimum and maximum. The mathematical expression for this is:
valueToScale * (maximum - minimum) / (maximum scale value - minimum scale value) .

Specified by:

scale in interface Scale

Parameters:

minimum - the minimum value of the range to convert to

maximum - the maximum value of the range to convert to

valueToScale - the value to convert

Returns:

double the converted value

descale

public double descale(double minimum,
                      double maximum,
                      double valueToDescale)

Description copied from interface: Scale

Converts the value given by valueToDescale from the range given by minimum and maximum to the range of this Scale. The mathematical expression for this is:
valueToScale * (maximum scale value - minimum scale value) / (maximum - minimum) .

Specified by:

descale in interface Scale

Parameters:

minimum - the minimum value of the range to convert from

maximum - the maximum value of the range to convert from

valueToDescale - the value to convert

Returns:

double the converted value

deepCopy

public Scale deepCopy()

Description copied from interface: Scale

Method to deep copy this scale instance.

Specified by:

deepCopy in interface Scale

Returns:

the copied Scale.

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object obj)

hashCode
