unsigned int Point::getDimension

(

)

const

Gets the dimension of the current node.

Returns:

The current dimension.

double Point::getCoordinate

(

const int

index

)

const

Gets the coordinate on a given dimension.

Parameters:

index

The dimension we wish to know the coordinate on

Returns:

The requested coordinate value

void Point::setCoordinate	(	const int	index,
		const double	value
	)

Sets the coordinate on a given dimension.

Parameters:

	index	The dimension we wish to set the coordinate on
	value	The coordinate value we wish to set

void Point::setCoordinates

(

vector< double >

values

)

Sets the coordinate to match that of a given STL vector.

Parameters:

values

The STL vector< double > we wish to copy

Point * Point::operator-

(

const Point

other

)

const

Convenience method for dimension-by-dimension substraction of point coordinates.

Beware to not call this method instead of Metric.subtract(), where appropiate!

Parameters:

other

The other point

Returns:

A point which equals this-other, in the euclidian sense

string Point::toString

(

)

const

Prints a point nicely to string format.

Returns:

String representation of the current point
