Constructor Detail

Coordinate

public Coordinate()

Default constructor.

Coordinate

public Coordinate(boolean negative,
                  int deg,
                  int min,
                  double sec)

Initialise coordinate with degrees, minutes, seconds

Parameters:

negative - whether the coordinate is negative

deg - degrees

min - minutes

sec - seconds

Coordinate

public Coordinate(double deg)

Generate Coordinate from decimal notation.

Parameters:

deg - decimal notation

Method Detail

isNegative

public boolean isNegative()

Returns whether the coordinate is negative.

Returns:

true if negative

getDegree

the copy

compareTo

public int compareTo(Coordinate o)

Compares this object with the specified object for order. Returns a negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as this object is less than, equal to, or greater than the specified object.

Specified by:

compareTo in interface Comparable<Coordinate>

Parameters:

o - the object to be compared.

Returns:

a negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as this object is less than, equal to, or greater than the specified object.

Throws:

ClassCastException - if the specified object's type prevents it from being compared to this object.

equals

public boolean equals(Object o)

Returns whether the two objects are the same.

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Parameters:

o - the object to be compared

Returns:

true if the object is the same as this one

toString

public String toString()

String representation.
