Constructor Details

Ball

public Ball(Random random,
 double diam,
 Hashtable<Character,Integer> aaCodes,
 char type_in)

The basic constructor which makes an object of class Ball accordingly to the SimulationBox properties and sets its diameter.

Parameters:

random - Random object to set coordinates

diam - diameter of the ball

aaCodes - a dictionary of codes and values of types

type_in - type of newly forming AA ball

Ball

public Ball(Ball ball)

This constructor is used to make a copy of given ball.

Parameters:

ball - the new ball will be copy of

Ball

public Ball(Double[] centerOfMass)

Makes a "ball" representation of the center of mass in the system. Used in RadiusOfGyration(SimSpace s)

Parameters:

centerOfMass - to put a ball on a right position.
