Subtraction Operator (Coordinate2D)

In This Topic

Constructs a new Coordinate2D by subtracting two Coordinate2D objects. Vector subtraction is used.

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration)
C#

Public Operator -( _
   ByVal a As Coordinate2D, _
   ByVal b As Coordinate2D _
) As Coordinate2D

public Coordinate2D operator -( 
   Coordinate2D a,
   Coordinate2D b
)

Parameters

a
b

Return Value

A newly constructed Coordinate2D by subtracting the components of the two Coordinate2D objects from each other.

Example

2D Vector Operations

{
  Coordinate2D v = new Coordinate2D(0, 1);
  // v.Magnitude = 1

  Coordinate2D other = new Coordinate2D(-1, 0);
  double dotProduct = v.DotProduct(other);
  // dotProduct = 0

  Coordinate2D w = v + other;
  // w = (-1, 1)

  w += other;
  // w = (-2, 1)

  w -= other;
  // w = (-1, 1)

  w = v;
  w.Rotate(Math.PI, other);
  // w = (-2, -1)

  w = other;

  w.Scale(-4);
  // w = (4, 0)
  // w.Magnitude = 4

  w.Move(-1, 4);
  // w = (3, 4)
  // w.Magnitude = 5

  w.Move(-6, -1);
  Tuple<double, double> components = w.QueryComponents();
  // components = (-3, 3)
  // w.Magnitude = 3 * Math.Sqrt(2)

  Coordinate2D unitVector = w.GetUnitVector();
  // w = (-Math.Sqrt(2) / 2, Math.Sqrt(2) / 2)
  // w.Magnitude = 1
  w.SetComponents(3, 4);
}
