Method Detail

getSeed

public long getSeed()

setSeed

public void setSeed(long seed)

getPerlinNoise

public float getPerlinNoise(double x)

Generates one dimensional noise. The input value is normalised to be between 0 (inclusive) and 256 (exclusive), so the input should be constrained to be between those values for best results (otherwise the pattern will start to repeat).

Parameters:

x - The point for which to determine the noise value.

Returns:

A noise value between -0.5 and 0.5.

getPerlinNoise

public float getPerlinNoise(double x,
                            double y)

Generates two dimensional noise. The input values are normalised to be between 0 (inclusive) and 256 (exclusive), so the input should be constrained to be between those values for best results (otherwise the pattern will start to repeat).

Parameters:

x - The X coordinate of the point for which to determine the noise value.

y - The Y coordinate of the point for which to determine the noise value.

Returns:

A noise value between -0.5 and 0.5.

getPerlinNoise

public float getPerlinNoise(double x,
                            double y,
                            double z)

Generates three dimensional noise. The input values are normalised to be between 0 (inclusive) and 256 (exclusive), so the input should be constrained to be between those values for best results (otherwise the pattern will start to repeat).

Parameters:

x - The X coordinate of the point for which to determine the noise value.

y - The Y coordinate of the point for which to determine the noise value.

z - The Z coordinate of the point for which to determine the noise value.

Returns:

A noise value between -0.5 and 0.5.
