Field Detail

ZERO

public static final Vector2 ZERO

A vector with the length 0.0.

Constructor Detail

Vector2

public Vector2(double dx,
               double dy)

Creates a new two-component vector with the given values.

Vector2

public Vector2(Point2 source,
               Point2 target)

Creates a new two-component vector from the given points. In the new vector, this.getDeltaX() = target.getX() - source.getX() and this.getDeltaY() = target.getY() - source.getY().

Method Detail

getDeltaX

public double getDeltaX()

Returns the horizontal component.

getDeltaY

public double getDeltaY()

Returns the vertical component.

setDeltaX

public void setDeltaX(double dx)

Sets the horizontal component to the value dx.

setDeltaY

public void setDeltaY(double dy)

Sets the vertical component to the value dy.

set

public void set(double dx,
                double dy)

Sets the horizontal and vertical component.

Overrides:

set in class Tuple2

Parameters:

dx - The value of the horizontal component.

dy - The value of the vertical component.

See Also:

set(Point2,Point2), set(Vector2)

set

public void set(Point2 source,
                Point2 target)

Sets the horizontal and vertical components to correspond the transfer from the point source to the point target. After the operation, this.getDeltaX() = target.getX() - this.getX() and this.getDeltaY() = target.getY() - this.getY().

See Also:

set(Vector2)

set

public void set(Vector2 v)

Sets the horizontal and vertical components to the same values as in other.

length

public double length()

Returns the length of this vector.

lengthSquared

public double lengthSquared()

Returns the squared length of this vector.

add

public void add(double dx,
                double dy)

Adds values to the components.

Overrides:

add in class Tuple2

Parameters:

dx - The value added to the horizontal component.

dy - The value added to the vertical component.

See Also:

add(Vector2)

add

public void add(Vector2 other)

Adds the components of other to the components.

transfer

public Point2 transfer(Point2 source)

Creates and returns a point that is transfered from the point source according to this vector. In the new point, getX() = source.getX() + this.getDeltaX() and getY() = source.getY() + this.getDeltaY().

rotate90

public void rotate90()

Rotates the vector 90 degrees counterclockwise.

See Also:

rotate(double), rotate180(), rotate270()

rotate180

public void rotate180()

Rotates the vector 180 degrees counterclockwise.

See Also:

rotate

public void rotate(double r)

Rotates the vector counterclockwise.

Parameters:

r - The amount of rotation in radians.
