Method Detail
-
approximate
double approximate(T v)
- Returns:
- The approximated value (between 0 and 1) on the path which is closest to the specified value. Note that the
implementation of this method might be optimized for speed against precision, see
locate(Object)
for a more precise (but more intensive) method.
-
locate
double locate(T v)
- Returns:
- The precise location (between 0 and 1) on the path which is closest to the specified value. Note that the
implementation of this method might be CPU intensive, see
approximate(Object)
for a faster (but less precise) method.
-
approxLength
double approxLength(int samples)
- Parameters:
samples
- The amount of divisions used to approximate length. Higher values will produce more precise results, but will be more CPU intensive.- Returns:
- An approximated length of the spline through sampling the curve and accumulating the euclidean distances between the sample points.
