hussam.math.operations
Interface Operator

All Superinterfaces:
java.lang.Cloneable, java.lang.Comparable<Operator>, Operation, java.io.Serializable
All Known Implementing Classes:
CustomFunctionFactory.CustomFunction, DynamicFunctionFactory.DynamicFunction, Function, Operand, OperatorFactoryDB.CommaOperand
public interface Operator
extends Operation, java.lang.Comparable<Operator>

This interface reflects operators such as Operands(+, -, ^ , * ...etc) and Functions such as Abs, Log, Min, Max...etc an Operator takes an Operation for example from which it will get a new Result. For example: The + operand, will take 2 operations as arguments, it will then computes the addition. 

The flags bellow are for parssing purposes.
 They will be used to indicate weather it is the right momment to parse a given argument.
 For example,
 4 +6 * 8
The parser will parse multiplication Operands first becasue they have more power. Then the plus operand will be computed. You can Notice that a Function is computed before any other operators. The Power operand is computed before Multiplication operands. I guess the description below show everything!

Field Summary
static intCOMMA
          Comma has lower power.
static intFUNCTION
          a Function power is the most.
static intINDEFINITE
          a flag Indicating that the Operator has an Indefinite power.
static intLOGICAL
          Logical has low power.
static intMULTIPLY
          Multiplicity is computed before than PLUS operations.
static intNOTHING
          No Power at all.
static intPLUS
          Plus indication.
static intPOWER
          a POWER is stronger than Mulitiplicity operations.
