Class ConstantCurve

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Curve, ParameterizedData, Serializable, org.joda.beans.Bean, org.joda.beans.ImmutableBean

    public final class ConstantCurve
    extends Object
    implements Curve, org.joda.beans.ImmutableBean, Serializable
    A curve based on a single constant value.

    This class defines a curve in terms of a single parameter, the constant value. When queried, yValue(double) always returns the constant value. The sensitivity is 1 and the first derivative is 0.

    The curve has one parameter, the value of the constant.

                                           double newValue)
        Description copied from interface: ParameterizedData
        Returns a copy of the data with the value at the specified index altered.

        This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.

        Specified by:
        withParameter in interface Curve
        Specified by:
        withParameter in interface ParameterizedData
        Parameters:
        parameterIndex - the zero-based index of the parameter to get
        newValue - the new value for the specified parameter
        Returns:
        a parameterized data instance based on this with the specified parameter altered
      • withPerturbation

        public ConstantCurve withPerturbation​(ParameterPerturbation perturbation)
        Description copied from interface: ParameterizedData
        Returns a perturbed copy of the data.

        The perturbation instance will be invoked once for each parameter in this instance, returning the perturbed value for that parameter. The result of this method is a new instance that is based on those perturbed values.

        This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.

        Specified by:
        withPerturbation in interface Curve
        Specified by:
        withPerturbation in interface ParameterizedData
        Parameters:
        perturbation - the perturbation to apply
        Returns:
        a parameterized data instance based on this with the specified perturbation applied
