Methods

IconTypeDescription
Clone()
Constructs an exact copy of this instance.
Equals(Object)
Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object.
Finalize()
Allows an Object to attempt to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection.
FindRoots()
Gets the set of X-coordinates where the curve crosses the X-axis.
GetCurveFitter()
Returns a CurveFitter object that can be used to fit the curve to data.
GetDataPoint(Int32)
Gets the data point with the specified index.
GetDerivative()
Returns a Curve that represents the derivative of this Curve.
GetHashCode()
Serves as a hash function for a particular type.
GetType()
Gets the Type of the current instance.
GetXValue(Int32)
Returns the X value of the data point with the specified index.
GetYValue(Int32)
Returns the Y value of the data point with the specified index.
IndexOf(Double)
Finds the index of the lower bound of the interval that contains the specfied value.
Integral(Double, Double)

OnParameterChanged(Int32, Double)
Called after a Curve parameter has been changed.
OnParameterChanging(Int32, Double)
Called before the value of a curve parameter is changed.
SetDataPoint(Int32, Point)
Sets the X value of the data point with the specified index.
SetDataPoints(Int32[](), Point[]())

SetYValues(Int32[](), Double[]())
Sets the Y values at the specified indexes.
SlopeAt(Double)
Gets the slope of the curve at the specified X-coordinate.
TangentAt(Double)
Gets the tangent Line to the curve at the specified X-coordinate.
ToString()
Returns a String that represents the current Object.
ValueAt(Double)
Gets the Y-value of the curve at the specified X-coordinate.

Constructors

IconTypeDescription
PiecewiseLinearCurveNew(Double[](), Double[]())
Constructs a new PiecewiseLinearCurve object.

Properties

IconTypeDescription
NumberOfIntervals
Gets the number of intervals that make up this PiecewiseCurve.
Parameters
Gets the collection of parameters that determine the shape of this Curve.

Remarks

Use the PiecewiseLinearCurve class to represent a curve or function that looks like a broken line. It is most commonly used for linear interpolation of tabulated data that represents a continuous function. On each interval between two data points, the curve is approximated by a straight line between the data points.

Piecewise linear curves inherit from PiecewiseCurve.
