CppNode-class {quadtree}R Documentation

CppNode: C++ quadtree node

Description

The CppNode C++ class defines objects that represent a single node of a quadtree. This is used internally - end users should have no need to use any of the methods listed here.

Details

This class is defined in 'src/NodeWrapper.h' and 'src/NodeWrapper.cpp'. When made available to R, it is exposed as CppNode instead of NodeWrapper. NodeWrapper contains a pointer to a Node object (defined in 'src/Node.h' and 'src/Node.cpp'). All of the core functionality is in the Node class - NodeWrapper is a wrapper class that adds the 'Rcpp' code required for it to be accessible from R.

Fields

asVector

  • Description: Returns a vector giving info about the node

  • Parameters: none

  • Returns: a numeric vector with the following named elements:

    • id

    • hasChidren

    • level

    • xmin

    • xmax

    • ymin

    • ymax

    • smallestChildLength

    as_data_frame makes use of this function to output info on each node - see the documentation of that function for details on what each column represents

getChildren

  • Description: Returns a list of the child nodes

  • Parameters: none

  • Returns: a list of CppNode objects

getNeighborIds

  • Description: Returns the IDs of the neighboring cells

  • Parameters: none

  • Returns: a numeric vector containing the neighbor IDs

getNeighborInfo

  • Description: Returns a matrix with info on each of the neighboring cells

  • Parameters: none

  • Returns: a matrix. The getNeighborList() member function of CppQuadtree makes use of this function - see documentation of that function for details on the return matrix.

getNeighborVals

  • Description: Returns the values of all neighboring cells

  • Parameters: none

  • Returns: a numeric vector

getNeighbors

  • Description: Returns a list of the neighboring nodes

  • Parameters: none

  • Returns: a list of CppNode objects

hasChildren

  • Description: Returns a boolean representing whether the node has children

  • Parameters: none

  • Returns: a boolean value - TRUE if it has children, FALSE otherwise

id

  • Description: Returns the ID of this node

  • Parameters: none

  • Returns: an integer

level

  • Description: Returns the 'level' (i.e. depth in the tree) of this node

  • Parameters: none

  • Returns: an integer

smallestChildSideLength

  • Description: Returns the side length of the smallest descendant node

  • Parameters: none

  • Returns: a double

value

  • Description: Returns the value of the node

  • Parameters: none

  • Returns: a double

xLims

  • Description: Returns the x boundaries of the node

  • Parameters: none

  • Returns: two-element numeric vector (xmin, xmax)

yLims

  • Description: Returns the y boundaries of the node

  • Parameters: none

  • Returns: two-element numeric vector (ymin, ymax)
