Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ALMaSS_MathFuncs()

ALMaSS_MathFuncs::ALMaSS_MathFuncs ( )

inline

ALMaSS_MathFuncs constructor.

This class is designed to hold general math functions frequently used in the ALMaSS code. For example distance calculations using either Pythagoras or the approximation of Pythagoras

                       {
        ;
    }

CalcDistPythagoras()

int ALMaSS_MathFuncs::CalcDistPythagoras	(	int	a_x,
		int	a_y,
		int	a_x1,
		int	a_y1
	)

Calculate distance using Pythagoras.

                                                                               {
    int dx = a_x - a_x1;
    int dy = a_y - a_y1;
    int dist = (int)sqrt( (double)(dx*dx + dy*dy) );
    return dist;
}

CalcDistPythagorasApprox()

int ALMaSS_MathFuncs::CalcDistPythagorasApprox	(	int	a_x,
		int	a_y,
		int	a_x1,
		int	a_y1
	)

Calculate distance using the Pythagoras approximation.

The approximation to Pythagorus is accurate to around 6%

                                                                                     {
    int dx = abs( a_x - a_x1 );
    int dy = abs( a_y - a_y1 );
    dx++;  //To avoid division by zero
    dy++;
    int dist;
    if (dx>dy) {
        dist = dx + (dy * dy) / (2 * dx);
    }
    else dist = dy + (dx * dx) / (2 * dy);
    return dist;
}
