Enum Constant Detail

• ANY_SIDE

  public static final AllowedSolution ANY_SIDE

  There are no additional side restriction on the solutions for root-finding. That is, both under-approximations and over-approximations are allowed. So, if a function f(x) has a root at x = x0, then the root-finding result s may be smaller than x0, equal to x0, or greater than x0.

• LEFT_SIDE

  public static final AllowedSolution LEFT_SIDE

  Only solutions that are less than or equal to the actual root are acceptable as solutions for root-finding. In other words, over-approximations are not allowed. So, if a function f(x) has a root at x = x0, then the root-finding result s must satisfy s <= x0.

• RIGHT_SIDE

  public static final AllowedSolution RIGHT_SIDE

  Only solutions that are greater than or equal to the actual root are acceptable as solutions for root-finding. In other words, under-approximations are not allowed. So, if a function f(x) has a root at x = x0, then the root-finding result s must satisfy s >= x0.

• BELOW_SIDE

  public static final AllowedSolution BELOW_SIDE

  Only solutions for which values are less than or equal to zero are acceptable as solutions for root-finding. So, if a function f(x) has a root at x = x0, then the root-finding result s must satisfy f(s) <= 0.

• ABOVE_SIDE

  public static final AllowedSolution ABOVE_SIDE

  Only solutions for which values are greater than or equal to zero are acceptable as solutions for root-finding. So, if a function f(x) has a root at x = x0, then the root-finding result s must satisfy f(s) >= 0.

Method Detail

• values

  public static AllowedSolution[] values()

  Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

  for (AllowedSolution c : AllowedSolution.values())
      System.out.println(c);
  

  Returns:

  an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

• valueOf

  public static AllowedSolution valueOf(String name)

  Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

  Parameters:

  name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

  Returns:

  the enum constant with the specified name

  Throws:

  IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

  NullPointerException - if the argument is null
