      • checkNormalizedRankBounds

        public static final void checkNormalizedRankBounds​(double nRank)
        Checks that the given normalized rank: 0 ≤ nRank ≤ 1.0.
        Parameters:
        nRank - the given normalized rank.
      • checkDoublesSplitPointsOrder

        public static final void checkDoublesSplitPointsOrder​(double[] values)
        Checks the sequential validity of the given array of double values. They must be unique, monotonically increasing and not NaN.
        Parameters:
        values - the given array of double values
      • checkFloatsSplitPointsOrder

        public static final void checkFloatsSplitPointsOrder​(float[] values)
        Checks the sequential validity of the given array of float values. They must be unique, monotonically increasing and not NaN.
        Parameters:
        values - the given array of double values
      • equallySpacedDoubles

        public static double[] equallySpacedDoubles​(int num)
        Returns an array of (num + 1) values that define equally sized intervals between 0.0, inclusive, and 1.0, inclusive. The end points 0.0 and 1.0 are part of the returned array.

        For example, if num == 2, three values will be returned: 0.0, .5, and 1, where the two equally sized regions are {0.0,0.5}, and {0.5, 1.0}.

        Parameters:
        num - the total number of equally sized intervals between 0.0, inclusive and 1.0, inclusive. Must be 1 or greater.
        Returns:
        a double array of values that define (num + 1) equally sized intervals between 0.0, inclusive and 1.0, inclusive.
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if num is less than 1.
      • equallySpacedLongs

        public static long[] equallySpacedLongs​(long min,
                                                long max,
                                                int num)
        Returns an array of (num + 1) longs that define, approximately, equally spaced intervals between the given max, inclusive, and min, inclusive. The end points max and min are part of the returned array. Because the range of the values may not exactly divide into num intervals, the size of these intervals may vary by plus or minus one.
        Parameters:
        min - the lowest positive valued (or zero) number of the range
        max - the highest positive valued number of the range. max must be greater than min
        num - Number of requested intervals. Must be greater or equal to one, and less than or equal to max - min.
        Returns:
        an array of (num + 1) longs that are approximately equally spaced between the given min and max.
