Figure-class: Class "Figure"
Description
Objects of class "Figure"
represent simple geometric bounded
subsets (such as rectangles, segments, point patterns) in spaces with
arbitrary dimensions. The subsets are defined up to a translation. See
extensions such as Quadrat
, Segment
or PointPattern
.Objects from the Class
Objects can be created by calls of the form new("Figure", ...)
.Slots
dimspace
:- Object of class
"numeric"
. Dimension
of the space containing the figure. For instance, 2 for a planar figure. coord
:- Object of class
"matrix"
. Each column
contains the Cartesian coordinates of special points which define
the figure. For instance, the end of a segment starting at the origin.
