Constructor Detail

### FanCompress

    public FanCompress()

Method Detail

### next_point

    public abstract boolean next_point(FanCompress.FanPoint p)

  Get the next point.

  Parameters:
    `p` - FanPoint
  Returns:
    boolean false if no more points.

### save_point

    public abstract void save_point(double x,
                                    double y)

  Save coordinates.

  Parameters:
    `x` - coordinate
    `y` - coordinate

### set_coalesce_points

    public abstract void set_coalesce_points(double epsilon)

  Save only unique coordinates. If several points are the same, then coalesce them into one point.

  Parameters:
    `epsilon` - threshold used to determine uniqueness of coordinates.

### fan_compress

    public static final void fan_compress(FanCompress fan,
                                          double epsilon)

  Perform fan compression. IF there is only 1 point, save-point will be run on it twice, sorry.

  Parameters:
    `fan` - FanCompress object
    `epsilon` - double
