Detailed Description

mcRadical implements the radicals using mcPolynomial to hold as content any polynomial the user can input...

in addition this class also stores an index modifiable by the user using the KEY_EDITEXP...

Public Member Functions

 mcRadical (const mcPolynomial &contents)
bool data_isValidContainerFor (mcElementType t) const
 Returns TRUE if this element can safely contain the given element type.

Private Member Functions

Member Function Documentation

bool mcRadical::data_isValidContainerFor (  mcElementType  t  )  const [inline, virtual]
 

Returns TRUE if this element can safely contain the given element type.

Without this function a lot of errors could be undetectable:

        mcPolynomial pol; // creates a new polynomial
        mcElement e(pol); // references it
        [...]    // the programmers forgots what "e" references
        mcFraction f(e);  // mcFraction wraps a mcPolynomialHelpers class !
        f.data_GetNum();  // CRASH

This function must be overridden by mcElement-derived classes in order to provide a list of the mcElementType it can safely contain.

Reimplemented from mcExpContainer.
