All Implemented Interfaces:

Function

public final class UserFunction
extends AbstractFunction

A utility class which represents a user-defined function to be used within an expression.

User functions are created from a list parameters of type Variable and the function body, which is an arbitrary instance of Term. The function's return type is derived from the return type of the body.

User function bodies can be recursive - they can contain a node of the type Term.Call, which calls the function itself. An EvalException is thrown if the maximum stack size is reached.

              throws EvalException

Description copied from interface: Function

Evaluates this function to a double value.

Parameters:

env - the application dependant environment.

args - the (un-evaluated) arguments passed to the function

Returns:

a double value

Throws:

EvalException - if the evaluation fails

evalI

public int evalI(EvalEnv env,
        Term[] args)
          throws EvalException

Description copied from interface: Function

Evaluates this function to an int value.

Parameters:

env - the application dependant environment.

args - the (un-evaluated) arguments passed to the function

Returns:

an int value

Throws:

EvalException - if the evaluation fails

evalD

public double evalD(EvalEnv env,
           Term[] args)

Description copied from interface: Function
