Struct Sphere 

pub struct Sphere { /* private fields */ }

Sphere sequence generator

The Sphere struct is a generator for a sequence of points on a sphere.

Properties:

• vdc: The vdc property is an instance of the VdCorput struct. It is used to generate a Van der Corput sequence, which is a low-discrepancy sequence used for sampling points in a unit interval.
• cirgen: The cirgen property is an instance of the Circle struct. It is responsible for generating points on a circle.

Examples

use lds_rs::Sphere;

let mut sgen = Sphere::new(&[2, 3]);
sgen.reseed(1);
let result = sgen.pop();
assert_eq!(result[2], -0.5);

Implementations

impl Sphere

pub fn new(base: &[usize]) -> Self

Creates a new Sphere.

The function new creates a new Sphere object with a given base.

Arguments:

• base: The base parameter is an array of usize values. It is used to initialize the Sphere struct. The first element of the base array is used to create a new VdCorput struct, and the second element is used to create a new `Circle

Returns:

The new function is returning an instance of the Sphere struct.

pub fn pop(&mut self) -> [f64; 3]

Returns the pop of this Sphere.

The pop function returns a random point on a sphere using the VDC and cirgen generators.

Returns:

an array of three f64 values, representing the coordinates of a point on a sphere. The first two values (sinphi * c and sinphi * s) represent the x and y coordinates, while the third value (cosphi) represents the z coordinate.

Examples

use lds_rs::lds::Sphere;
use approx_eq::assert_approx_eq;

let mut sphere = Sphere::new(&[2, 3]);
let result = sphere.pop();
assert_approx_eq!(result[0], -0.5);
assert_approx_eq!(result[1], 0.8660254037844387);
assert_approx_eq!(result[2], 0.0);

pub fn reseed(&mut self, seed: usize)

The below code is a Rust function called reseed that is used to reset the state of a sequence generator to a specific seed value. This allows the sequence generator to start generating the sequence from the beginning or from a specific point in the sequence, depending on the value of the seed.

Trait Implementations

impl Debug for Sphere

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.
