LinearSpline

A spline based on a linear equation. This class implements the Spline interface, providing a way to represent and interpolate along a straight line defined by a LinearEquation.

Methods

LinearSpline(LinearEquation equation)

Constructs a new LinearSpline using the provided LinearEquation.

interpolateY(double x)

Returns the Y-value of the spline at a given X-value, directly using the underlying LinearEquation.

interpolate(double x)

Returns a PointXY object representing the point on the spline at a given X-value.

getStartPoint()

Returns the starting point of the spline. For a linear spline, this is typically the point at X=0 on the equation.

getEndPoint()

Returns the ending point of the spline. For a linear spline, this is typically the point at X=0 on the equation (same as start point as it's an infinite line).

toString()

Returns a string representation of the LinearSpline, including its slope.
