Class RealVectorFormat

java.lang.Object
org.hipparchus.linear.RealVectorFormat

public class RealVectorFormat extends Object
Formats a vector in components list format "{v0; v1; ...; vk-1}".

The prefix and suffix "{" and "}" and the separator "; " can be replaced by any user-defined strings. The number format for components can be configured.

White space is ignored at parse time, even if it is in the prefix, suffix or separator specifications. So even if the default separator does include a space character that is used at format time, both input string "{1;1;1}" and " { 1 ; 1 ; 1 } " will be parsed without error and the same vector will be returned. In the second case, however, the parse position after parsing will be just after the closing curly brace, i.e. just before the trailing space.

    • RealVectorFormat

      public RealVectorFormat()
      Create an instance with default settings.

    • RealVectorFormat

      public RealVectorFormat(NumberFormat format)
      Create an instance with a custom number format for components.
      Parameters:
      format - the custom format for components.
    • RealVectorFormat

      public RealVectorFormat(String prefix, String suffix, String separator)
      Create an instance with custom prefix, suffix and separator.
      Parameters:
      prefix - prefix to use instead of the default "{"
      suffix - suffix to use instead of the default "}"
      separator - separator to use instead of the default "; "

    • getPrefix

      public String getPrefix()
      Get the format prefix.
      Returns:
      format prefix.
    • getSuffix

      public String getSuffix()
      Get the format suffix.
      Returns:
      format suffix.
    • getSeparator

      public String getSeparator()
      Get the format separator between components.
      Returns:
      format separator.
    • getFormat

      public NumberFormat getFormat()
      Get the components format.
      Returns:
      components format.
    • getRealVectorFormat

      public static RealVectorFormat getRealVectorFormat()
      Returns the default real vector format for the current locale.
      Returns:
      the default real vector format.
      Since:
      1.4
    • getRealVectorFormat

      public static RealVectorFormat getRealVectorFormat(Locale locale)
      Returns the default real vector format for the given locale.
      Parameters:
      locale - the specific locale used by the format.
      Returns:
      the real vector format specific to the given locale.
      Since:
      1.4
    • format

      public String format(RealVector v)
      Parameters:
      v - RealVector object to format.
      Returns:
      a formatted vector.
    • format

      public StringBuffer format(RealVector vector, StringBuffer toAppendTo, FieldPosition pos)
      Formats a RealVector object to produce a string.
      Parameters:
      vector - the object to format.
      toAppendTo - where the text is to be appended
      pos - On input: an alignment field, if desired. On output: the offsets of the alignment field
      Returns:
      the value passed in as toAppendTo.
    • parse

      public ArrayRealVector parse(String source)
      Parse a string to produce a RealVector object.
      Parameters:
      source - String to parse.
      Returns:
      the parsed RealVector object.
      Throws:
      MathIllegalStateException - if the beginning of the specified string cannot be parsed.
    • parse

      public ArrayRealVector parse(String source, ParsePosition pos)
      Parse a string to produce a RealVector object.
      Parameters:
      source - String to parse.
      pos - input/ouput parsing parameter.
      Returns:
      the parsed RealVector object.
