Field Summary

private int	count_
private float[]	data_

Constructor Summary

FloatArray()
create with default length

FloatArray(float[] dat)
copy initial data from another float[].

FloatArray(FloatArray dat)
copy initial data from another FloatArray (non-null).

FloatArray(int len)
create with initial buffer length

Method Summary

void	append(float d) append one float element
boolean	clearData() clear the array
private void	enlarge(int newsize) enlarge the data array to its new size; does not change count_
int	getCount() get count of used array members.
float[]	getData() get data array.
void	setData(float[] dat) copy data from a float[]
void	setData(float[] dat, int n) copy first n elements of a float[]
void	setData(FloatArray dat) copy data from another FloatArray
void	setSize(int n) set number of used array elements (ensures there is enough storage)

Field Detail

data_

private float[] data_

count_

private int count_

Constructor Detail

FloatArray

public FloatArray()

create with default length

FloatArray

public FloatArray(int len)

create with initial buffer length

FloatArray

public FloatArray(float[] dat)

copy initial data from another float[]. To say it again: values in float[] are *copied* and not just referenced by this class

FloatArray

public FloatArray(FloatArray dat)

copy initial data from another FloatArray (non-null). do not use the above constructor in this case, as it would use all values, not just the used length (count); again: values are *copied*

Method Detail

setData

public void setData(FloatArray dat)

copy data from another FloatArray

setData

public void setData(float[] dat)

copy data from a float[]

setData

public void setData(float[] dat,
                    int n)

copy first n elements of a float[]

getCount

public final int getCount()

get count of used array members. Note: may be smaller than data_.length

getData

public final float[] getData()

get data array. Only elements 0 to (getCount () - 1) were set by user. Subsequent calls (after enlargement) may return a different array object

append

public void append(float d)

append one float element

setSize

public void setSize(int n)

set number of used array elements (ensures there is enough storage)

clearData

public boolean clearData()

clear the array

Returns:

true if the array was previously non-empty

enlarge

private void enlarge(int newsize)

enlarge the data array to its new size; does not change count_
