Class Interval2D

java.lang.Object

Interval2D

public class Interval2D
extends java.lang.Object

The Interval2D class represents a closed two-dimensional interval, which represents all points (x, y) with both xleft <= x <= xright and yleft <= y <= right. Two-dimensional intervals are immutable: their values cannot be changed after they are created. The class Interval2D includes methods for checking whether a two-dimensional interval contains a point and determining whether two two-dimensional intervals intersect.

For additional documentation, see Section 1.2 of Algorithms, 4th Edition, by Robert Sedgewick and Kevin Wayne.

Constructor Detail

Interval2D

public Interval2D(Interval1D x,
          Interval1D y)

Initializes a two-dimensional interval.

Parameters:

x - the one-dimensional interval of x-coordinates

y - the one-dimensional interval of y-coordinates

Method Detail

intersects

public boolean intersects(Interval2D that)

Does this two-dimensional interval intersect that two-dimensional interval?

Parameters:

that - the other two-dimensional interval

Returns:

true if this two-dimensional interval intersects that two-dimensional interval; false otherwise

contains

public boolean contains(Point2D p)

Does this two-dimensional interval contain the point p?

Parameters:

p - the two-dimensional point

Returns:

true if this two-dimensional interval contains the point p; false otherwise

area

public double area()

Returns the area of this two-dimensional interval.

Returns:

the area of this two-dimensional interval

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Returns a string representation of this two-dimensional interval.

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

a string representation of this two-dimensional interval in the form [xleft, xright] x [yleft, yright]

draw

public void draw()

Draws this two-dimensional interval to standard draw.

main

public static void main(java.lang.String[] args)

Unit tests the Interval2D data type.
