All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods Concrete Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`abstract void`	`close()`	Closes this `Curve` if the last coordinate is not already the same as the first coordinate.
`boolean`	`isClockwise()`	Checks if this ring is oriented in clockwise direction.
`boolean`	`isClosed()`	Checks if this line is closed, so the last coordinate is the same as the first coordinate.
`abstract void`	`reverse()`	Reverses this linestring.

protected Curve(int type)
```
    Constructor for subclasses.
    
    Parameters:
    
    type - has to be given by all subclasses
- Method Detail
  - close
```
public abstract void close()
```
    Closes this Curve if the last coordinate is not already the same as the first coordinate.
  - isClockwise
```
public boolean isClockwise()
```
    Checks if this ring is oriented in clockwise direction.
    
    Returns:
    
    true on success, else false
  - isClosed
```
public boolean isClosed()
```
    Description copied from interface: LineBasedGeometry
    
    Checks if this line is closed, so the last coordinate is the same as the first coordinate.
    
    Specified by:
    
    isClosed in interface LineBasedGeometry
    
    Returns:
    
    true on success, else false
  - reverse
```
public abstract void reverse()
```
    Reverses this linestring.
