## Class BayesianChoice

- java.lang.Object
- - org.encog.ml.bayesian.BayesianChoice

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Comparable<BayesianChoice>

      public class BayesianChoice
      extends Object
      implements Serializable, Comparable<BayesianChoice>

  A choice in a Bayesian network. Choices can be either discrete or continuous. For continuous choices the number must be made discrete by mapping it to discrete ranges.

- - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### BayesianChoice

          public BayesianChoice(String label,
                        double min,
                        double max)

      Construct a continuous choice that covers the specified range.
      Parameters:
        `label` - The label for this choice.
        `min` - The minimum value for this range.
        `max` - The maximum value for this range.

    - #### BayesianChoice

          public BayesianChoice(String label,
                        int index)

      Construct a discrete choice for the specified index.
      Parameters:
        `label` - The label for this choice.
        `index` - The index for this choice.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### getLabel

          public String getLabel()

      Returns:
        Get the label.

    - #### getMin

          public double getMin()

      Returns:
        Get the min.

    - #### getMax

          public double getMax()

      Returns:
        Get the max.

    - #### isIndex

          public boolean isIndex()

      Returns:
        True, if this choice has an index, as opposed to min/max. If the value has an idex, then it is discrete.

    - #### toString

          public String toString()

      Overrides:
        `toString` in class `Object`

    - #### toFullString

          public String toFullString()

      Returns:
        A string representation of this choice.

    - #### compareTo

          public int compareTo(BayesianChoice other)

      Specified by:
        `compareTo` in interface `Comparable<BayesianChoice>`
