Constructor Details

Operator

public Operator(String symbol,
 int numberOfOperands,
 boolean leftAssociative,
 int precedence)

Create a new operator for use in expressions

Parameters:

symbol - the symbol of the operator

numberOfOperands - the number of operands the operator takes (1 or 2)

leftAssociative - set to true if the operator is left associative, false if it is right associative

precedence - the precedence value of the operator

Method Details

isAllowedOperatorChar

public static boolean isAllowedOperatorChar(char ch)

Check if a character is an allowed operator char

Parameters:

ch - the char to check

Returns:

true if the char is allowed an an operator symbol, false otherwise

isLeftAssociative

public boolean isLeftAssociative()

Check if the operator is left associative

Returns:

true os the operator is left associative, false otherwise

getPrecedence

public int getPrecedence()

Check the precedence value for the operator

Returns:

the precedence value

apply

public abstract double apply(double... args)

Apply the operation on the given operands

Parameters:

args - the operands for the operation

Returns:

the calculated result of the operation

getSymbol

public String getSymbol()

Get the operator symbol

Returns:

the symbol

getNumOperands

public int getNumOperands()

Get the number of operands

Returns:

the number of operands
