public class CotangentFunction
extends FunctionNode<java.lang.Double>

A FunctionNode which performs the reciprocal trigonometric function of cotangent. Cotangent x is equal to 1/tan x.


Constructor Summary
CotangentFunction()
          Construct a CotangentFunction with no children.
CotangentFunction(Node<java.lang.Double> child)
          Construct a CotangentFunction with one child.
 
Method Summary
 java.lang.Double evaluate()
          Evaluating a CotangentFunction involves calculating tan of the child once it's been evaluated, then dividing 1 by the result.

Constructor Detail

CotangentFunction

public CotangentFunction()
Construct a CotangentFunction with no children.


CotangentFunction

public CotangentFunction(Node<java.lang.Double> child)
Construct a CotangentFunction with one child. When evaluated, the child will be evaluated with cotangent performed on the result.

Parameters:
child - The child which cotangent will be performed on.
Method Detail

evaluate

public java.lang.Double evaluate()
Evaluating a CotangentFunction involves calculating tan of the child once it's been evaluated, then dividing 1 by the result.

Specified by:
evaluate in class Node<java.lang.Double>
Returns:
The result of evaluating the candidate program.

getFunctionName

public java.lang.String getFunctionName()
Get the unique name that identifies this function.

Specified by:
getFunctionName in class FunctionNode<java.lang.Double>
Returns:
the unique name for the CotangentFunction which is COT.
