Trait Point 

pub trait Point: Copy {
    type Scalar: Scalar;
    type Vector: Vector<Scalar = Self::Scalar>;

    // Required methods
    fn displacement(self, other: Self) -> Self::Vector;
    fn translate(self, v: Self::Vector) -> Self;

    // Provided method
    fn distance(self, other: Self) -> Self::Scalar { ... }
}

A position in an affine space, parameterized by its scalar and vector types.

Points represent positions. They cannot be added, but a displacement from one point to another yields a Vector, and translating a point by a Vector yields another point.

Required Associated Types

type Scalar: Scalar

Scalar type for distances and coordinates.

type Vector: Vector<Scalar = Self::Scalar>

Vector type for displacements and derivatives.

Required Methods

fn displacement(self, other: Self) -> Self::Vector

Displacement from self to other (i.e. other - self).

fn translate(self, v: Self::Vector) -> Self

Translate this point by a vector, returning a new point.

Provided Methods

fn distance(self, other: Self) -> Self::Scalar

Euclidean distance between two points.

Dyn Compatibility

This trait is not dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety", so this trait is not object safe.
