public class AbsoluteValue
extends Transformer

Produce an output token on each firing with a value that is equal to the absolute value of the input. The input can have any scalar type. If the input type is not Complex, the output has the same type as the input. If the input type is Complex, the output type is Double, in which case, the output value is the magnitude of the input complex.

Constructor Detail

AbsoluteValue

public AbsoluteValue(CompositeEntity container,
                     java.lang.String name)
              throws NameDuplicationException,
                     IllegalActionException

Construct an actor with the given container and name.

Parameters:

container - The container.

name - The name of this actor.

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If the actor cannot be contained by the proposed container.

NameDuplicationException - If the container already has an actor with this name.

Method Detail

clone

public java.lang.Object clone(Workspace workspace)
                       throws java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException

Clone the actor into the specified workspace. This calls the base class and then sets the type constraints.

Overrides:

clone in class AtomicActor

Parameters:

workspace - The workspace for the new object.

Returns:

A new actor.

Throws:

java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException - If a derived class has an attribute that cannot be cloned.

NamedObj.exportMoML(Writer, int, String), NamedObj.setDeferringChangeRequests(boolean)

fire

public void fire()
          throws IllegalActionException

Compute the absolute value of the input. If there is no input, then produce no output.

Specified by:

fire in interface Executable

Overrides:

fire in class AtomicActor

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If there is no director.

typeConstraints

public java.util.Set<Inequality> typeConstraints()

Return the following type constraints: If the input type is Complex, the output type is no less than Double, otherwise, the output type is no less than the input; The output type is no greater than Scalar.

Specified by:

typeConstraints in interface TypedActor

Overrides:

typeConstraints in class TypedAtomicActor

Returns:

A list of inequalities.
