Interface IIterableInterval<E extends Comparable<E>,​S,​U,​ME extends IIterableInterval<E,​S,​U,​ME>>

    • Method Detail

      • iterateFromLeft

        Iterator<E> iterateFromLeft()
        Returns:
        An iterator that visits the elements in this interval in order, from left to right. Returns null if this interval does not support iteration.
        See Also:
        iterator(), iterateFromRight()
      • iterateFromRight

        Iterator<E> iterateFromRight()
        Returns:
        An iterator that visits the elements in this interval in reverse order, from right to left. Returns null if this interval does not support iteration.
        See Also:
        iterator(), iterateFromLeft()
      • getStep

        S getStep()
        Returns:
        The step (or increment) by which this interval visits elements in its set. Returns null if this interval cannot iterate its elements.

        For instance, if the interval is a set of decimal values, say [1..10], the step might be a decimal increment, say 0.25. Similarly, if the interval is simply a set of integers the step might also be an integer value, typically 1. Considering a date interval, say [4/5/10..5/20/10], the step could be expressed in terms of a unit of time e.g., 10 seconds, 1 minute, 2 weeks, etc.

        Note if non-null, the step is a positive (or absolute) increment. To iterate the interval in reverse order use iterateFromRight().

      • getFromLeft

        E getFromLeft​(int iStepIndex)
        Parameters:
        iStepIndex - The index of the step from the left endpoint
        Returns:
        The nth step from the left endpoint. Returns null if iStepIndex is out of bounds.
      • getFromRight

        E getFromRight​(int iStepIndex)
        Parameters:
        iStepIndex - The index of the step from the right endpoint
        Returns:
        The nth step from the right endpoint. Returns null if iStepIndex is out of bounds.
