Detailed Description
This interface extends MultiDimSort<T> to implement multivariate sorting algorithms that sort objects that are pairwise comparable.
These objects have \(d\) sorting fields (or coordinates) and must implement the interface MultiDimComparable, which is used to sort them on any given coordinate, numbered from 0 to \(d-1\).
The ordering is induced by the method umontreal.ssj.util.MultiDimComparable.compareTo, and the number of the largest coordinate used by the sort must not exceed \(d-1\), where the dimension \(d\) refers to the value returned by umontreal.ssj.util.MultiDimComparable.dimension. One can sort only a subset of the objects, or all of them.
The documentation for this interface was generated from the following file:
- MultiDimSortComparable.java
