LVecBase3f LVecBase3f::LVecBase3f(void); Filename: lvecBase3_src.I Created by: drose (08Mar00) PANDA 3D SOFTWARE Copyright (c) Carnegie Mellon University. All rights reserved. All use of this software is subject to the terms of the revised BSD license. You should have received a copy of this license along with this source code in a file named "LICENSE." Description:

addHash unsigned int LVecBase3f::add_hash(unsigned int hash) const; Description: Adds the vector into the running hash.

addToCell void LVecBase3f::add_to_cell(int i, float value); These next functions add to an existing value. i.e. foo.set_x(foo.get_x() + value) These are useful to reduce overhead in scripting languages: Description:

addX void LVecBase3f::add_x(float value); These next functions add to an existing value. i.e. foo.set_x(foo.get_x() + value) These are useful to reduce overhead in scripting languages: Description:

addY void LVecBase3f::add_y(float value); Description:

addZ void LVecBase3f::add_z(float value); Description:

almostEqual bool LVecBase3f::almost_equal(LVecBase3f const &other, float threshold) const; Description: Returns true if two vectors are memberwise equal within a specified tolerance. Description: Returns true if two vectors are memberwise equal within a default tolerance based on the numeric type.

compareTo int LVecBase3f::compare_to(LVecBase3f const &other) const; Description: This flavor of compare_to uses a default threshold value based on the numeric type. Description: Sorts vectors lexicographically, componentwise. Returns a number less than 0 if this vector sorts before the other one, greater than zero if it sorts after, 0 if they are equivalent (within the indicated tolerance).

cross LVecBase3f LVecBase3f::cross(LVecBase3f const &other) const; Description:

crossInto void LVecBase3f::cross_into(LVecBase3f const &other); Description:

dot float LVecBase3f::dot(LVecBase3f const &other) const; Description:

fill void LVecBase3f::fill(float fill_value); Description: Sets each element of the vector to the indicated fill_value. This is particularly useful for initializing to zero.

fmax LVecBase3f LVecBase3f::fmax(LVecBase3f const &other); Description:

fmin LVecBase3f LVecBase3f::fmin(LVecBase3f const &other); Description:

getCell float LVecBase3f::get_cell(int i) const; Description:

getClassType static TypeHandle LVecBase3f::get_class_type(void); Undocumented function.

getData float const *LVecBase3f::get_data(void) const; Description: Returns the address of the first of the three data elements in the vector. The remaining elements occupy the next positions consecutively in memory.

getHash unsigned int LVecBase3f::get_hash(void) const; Description: Returns a suitable hash for phash_map.

getNumComponents int LVecBase3f::get_num_components(void) const; Description: Returns the number of elements in the vector, three.

getStandardizedHpr LVecBase3f LVecBase3f::get_standardized_hpr(void) const; Description: Try to un-spin the hpr to a standard form. Like all standards, someone decides between many arbitrary posible standards. This function assumes that 0 and 360 are the same, as is 720 and -360. Also 180 and -180 are the same. Another example is -90 and 270. Each element will be in the range -180.0 to 179.99999. The original usage of this function is for human readable output. It doesn't work so well for asserting that foo_hpr is roughly equal to bar_hpr. Try using LQuaternionf::is_same_direction() for that. See Also: get_standardized_rotation, LQuaternion::is_same_direction

getX float LVecBase3f::get_x(void) const; Description:

getXy LVecBase2f LVecBase3f::get_xy(void) const; Description: Returns a 2-component vector that shares just the first two components of this vector.

getXz LVecBase2f LVecBase3f::get_xz(void) const; Description: Returns a 2-component vector that shares just the first and last components of this vector.

getY float LVecBase3f::get_y(void) const; Description:

getYz LVecBase2f LVecBase3f::get_yz(void) const; Description: Returns a 2-component vector that shares just the last two components of this vector.

getZ float LVecBase3f::get_z(void) const; Description:

isNan bool LVecBase3f::is_nan(void) const; Description: Returns true if any component of the vector is not-a-number, false otherwise.

length float LVecBase3f::length(void) const; Description: Returns the length of the vector, by the Pythagorean theorem.

lengthSquared float LVecBase3f::length_squared(void) const; Description: Returns the square of the vector's length, cheap and easy.

normalize bool LVecBase3f::normalize(void); Description: Normalizes the vector in place. Returns true if the vector was normalized, false if it was a zero-length vector.

operator != bool LVecBase3f::operator !=(LVecBase3f const &other) const; Description:

operator * LVecBase3f LVecBase3f::operator *(float scalar) const; Description:

operator *= void LVecBase3f::operator *=(float scalar); Description:

operator + LVecBase3f LVecBase3f::operator +(LVecBase3f const &other) const; Description:

operator += void LVecBase3f::operator +=(LVecBase3f const &other); Description:

operator - LVecBase3f LVecBase3f::operator -(LVecBase3f const &other) const; Description:

operator - LVecBase3f LVecBase3f::operator -(LVecBase3f const &other) const; Description:

operator -= void LVecBase3f::operator -=(LVecBase3f const &other); Description:

operator / LVecBase3f LVecBase3f::operator /(float scalar) const; Description:

operator /= void LVecBase3f::operator /=(float scalar); Description:

operator < bool LVecBase3f::operator <(LVecBase3f const &other) const; Description: This performs a lexicographical comparison. It's of questionable mathematical meaning, but sometimes has a practical purpose for sorting unique vectors, especially in an STL container. Also see compare_to().

operator = LVecBase3f &LVecBase3f::operator =(LVecBase3f const &copy); Description:

operator == bool LVecBase3f::operator ==(LVecBase3f const &other) const; Description:
