Method Detail

evaluate

public byte evaluate(T lhs,
                     T[] rhs)
              throws UnsupportedOperationException

Description copied from class: AbstractOperator

Evaluate this equation, setting a new value for the left-hand side.

Specified by:

evaluate in class AbstractOperator<T extends IVariable<T>>

Returns:

a code that indicates: 1) has the lhs value changed? 2) has this equation reached a fixed-point, in that we never have to evaluate the equation again, even if rhs operands change?

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException

evaluate

public abstract byte evaluate(T lhs)

Evaluate this equation, setting a new value for the left-hand side.

Returns:

true if the lhs value changes. false otherwise.
