virtual ~math_Function ()=default
 Virtual destructor, for safe inheritance.
 
virtual bool Value (const double X, double &F)=0
 Computes the value of the function <F> for a given value of variable <X>. returns True if the computation was done successfully, False otherwise.
 
virtual int GetStateNumber ()
 returns the state of the function corresponding to the latest call of any methods associated with the function. This function is called by each of the algorithms described later which defined the function Integer Algorithm::StateNumber(). The algorithm has the responsibility to call this function when it has found a solution (i.e. a root or a minimum) and has to maintain the association between the solution found and this StateNumber. Byu default, this method returns 0 (which means for the algorithm: no state has been saved). It is the responsibility of the programmer to decide if he needs to save the current state of the function and to return an Integer that allows retrieval of the state.

◆ GetStateNumber()

virtual int math_Function::GetStateNumber ( )

returns the state of the function corresponding to the latest call of any methods associated with the function. This function is called by each of the algorithms described later which defined the function Integer Algorithm::StateNumber(). The algorithm has the responsibility to call this function when it has found a solution (i.e. a root or a minimum) and has to maintain the association between the solution found and this StateNumber. Byu default, this method returns 0 (which means for the algorithm: no state has been saved). It is the responsibility of the programmer to decide if he needs to save the current state of the function and to return an Integer that allows retrieval of the state.

Reimplemented in IntPatch_ArcFunction, Contap_ArcFunction, BRepGProp_TFunction, and Extrema_GFuncExtPC< TheCurve, TheCurveTool, ThePOnC, ThePoint, TheVector, TheSeqPOnC >.
