Constructor Details

AbstractCurve

public AbstractCurve(String name, LocalDate referenceDate)

Parameters:

name - The name of this curve.

referenceDate - The reference date of this curve.

Method Details

getName

public String getName()

Description copied from interface: Curve

Get the name of the curve.

Specified by:

getName in interface Curve

Returns:

The name of this curve

getReferenceDate

public LocalDate getReferenceDate()

Description copied from interface: Curve

Return the reference date of this curve, i.e. the date associated with t=0. May be null in case the curve is not associated with a fixed date (e.g. a time homogenous model).

Specified by:

getReferenceDate in interface Curve

Returns:

The date identified as t=0.

getValue

public RandomVariable getValue(double time)

Description copied from interface: Curve

Returns the value for the time using the interpolation method associated with this curve.

Specified by:

getValue in interface Curve

Parameters:

time - Time for which the value should be returned.

Returns:

The value at the give time.

getValues

public RandomVariable[] getValues(double[] times)

Return a vector of values corresponding to a given vector of times.

Parameters:

times - A given vector of times.

Returns:

A vector of values corresponding to the given vector of times.

clone

public AbstractCurve clone() throws CloneNotSupportedException

Description copied from interface: Curve

Create a deep copied clone.

Specified by:

clone in interface Curve

Overrides:

clone in class Object

Returns:

A clone (deep copied).

Throws:

CloneNotSupportedException - Thrown, when the curve could not be cloned.

getCloneForParameter

public Curve getCloneForParameter(RandomVariable[] value) throws CloneNotSupportedException

Description copied from interface: ParameterObject

Create a clone with a modified parameter.

Specified by:

getCloneForParameter in interface Curve

Specified by:

getCloneForParameter in interface ParameterObject

Parameters:

value - The new parameter.

Returns:

A clone with an otherwise modified parameter.

Throws:

CloneNotSupportedException - Thrown, when the curve could not be cloned.

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object
