java.lang.Object

micycle.pgs.commons.RandomSpaceFillingCurve

public class RandomSpaceFillingCurve
extends Object

Generates random space-filling curves.

A space-filling curve is a continuous curve that traverses every point of an plane exactly once.

This class implements the technique described in "Context-based space filling curves" by Dafner et al, and is based on this javascript implementation by Claudio Esperança.

RandomSpaceFillingCurve

public RandomSpaceFillingCurve(int ncols,
 int nrows)

Instantiates a random space-filling curve. The curve is created upon initialisation.

Parameters:

ncols - number of cells in the x direction (columns)

nrows - number of cells in the y direction (rows)
