Constructor Detail

Id.Distance

public Id.Distance()

Constructor.

Id.Distance

public Id.Distance(byte[] diff)

Constructor.

Parameters:

diff - The different, as a byte array

Id.Distance

public Id.Distance(int[] diff)

Constructor.

Parameters:

diff - The difference, as an int array

Method Detail

blit

public void blit(byte[] target)

Blits the distance into a target array.

Parameters:

target - an array of length at least IdBitLength/8 for the distance to be stored in.

copy

public byte[] copy()

Copy the distance into a freshly generated array.

Returns:

a fresh copy of the distance material

compareTo

public int compareTo(java.lang.Object obj)

Comparison operator. The comparison that occurs is an absolute magnitude comparison.

Specified by:

compareTo in interface java.lang.Comparable

Parameters:

obj - the Distance to compare with.

Returns:

negative if this < obj, 0 if they are equal and positive if this > obj.

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object obj)

Equality operator.

Parameters:

obj - another Distance.

Returns:

true if they are the same, false otherwise.

shift

public Id.Distance shift(int cnt,
                         int fill)

Shift operator. shift(-1,0) multiplies value of this by two, shift(1,0) divides by 2

Parameters:

cnt - the number of bits to shift, negative shifts left, positive shifts right

fill - value of bit shifted in (0 if fill == 0, 1 otherwise)

Returns:

this

shift

public Id.Distance shift(int cnt,
                         int fill,
                         boolean roundUp)

Shift operator. shift(-1,0) multiplies value of this by two, shift(1,0) divides by 2

Parameters:

cnt - the number of bits to shift, negative shifts left, positive shifts right

fill - value of bit shifted in (0 if fill == 0, 1 otherwise)

roundUp - if true, round up the results after right shifting

Returns:

this

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Hash codes.

Returns:

a hash code.

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Returns a string representation of the distance The string is a byte string from most to least significant.

Returns:

The string representation of this distance

shiftDistance

public Id.Distance shiftDistance(int cnt,
                                 int fill)

Shift operator. shift(-1,0) multiplies value of this by two, shift(1,0) divides by 2

Specified by:

shiftDistance in interface Id.Distance

Parameters:

cnt - the number of bits to shift, negative shifts left, positive shifts right

fill - value of bit shifted in (0 if fill == 0, 1 otherwise)

Returns:

this
