Methods

	Name	Description
	Equals	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object)
	GetHashCode	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
	SetDomain	Sets the x-values of the pivot points in the piecewise linear function.
	SetRange	Sets the y-values of the pivot points in the piecewise linear function.
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)

Operators

	Name	Description
	(PiecewiseLinearFunction to FuncDouble, Double)	Converts the PiecewiseLinearFunction object to a FuncT, TResult to start converting values.

Extension Methods

	Name	Description
	GetEnumValueOrDefault	Gets the enumeration constant for value, if defined in the enumeration, or a default value. (Defined by EnumExtensions)
	GetEnumValueOrDefaultT	Gets the enumeration constant for this value, if defined in the enumeration, or a default value. (Defined by EnumExtensions)

Remarks

The conversion function returned by this class uses a binary search algorithm to find the appropriate line segment to use for the calculation. Therefore, the domain must be specified either in increasing or decreasing order.

Here is an example of how to use this class.

Copy

Func<double, double> piecewiseLinearFunc = new PiecewiseLinearFunction()
    .SetDomain(-1, 0, 1)
    .SetRange(0, 1, 0);

Console.WriteLine(piecewiseLinearFunc(-10));   // -9
Console.WriteLine(piecewiseLinearFunc(-1));    // 0 
Console.WriteLine(piecewiseLinearFunc(-0.5));  // 0.5
Console.WriteLine(piecewiseLinearFunc(0));     // 1
Console.WriteLine(piecewiseLinearFunc(0.5));   // 0.5
Console.WriteLine(piecewiseLinearFunc(1));     // 0
Console.WriteLine(piecewiseLinearFunc(10));    // -9
