Use the Constant class to represent a Curve with a constant Y-value. It inherits from Curve and provides specialized implementation for most methods.

A Constant curve has one parameter: the Y-value.

The ValueAt(Double) method returns the constant value of the curve. SlopeAt(Double) always returns zero. Integral(Double, Double) evaluates the definite integral over a specified interval.

A Constant curve is returned by the GetDerivative()()() method of the Line class.
