VS:EqPt

Description

Returns TRUE if the 2D points are equal within the tolerance.

FUNCTION EqPt(
        pt1         :VECTOR;
        pt2         :VECTOR;
        tolerance   :REAL) : BOOLEAN;

def vs.EqPt(pt1, pt2, tolerance):
    return BOOLEAN

Parameters

pt1		VECTOR
pt2		VECTOR
tolerance		REAL

Remarks

(_c_, 2022.01.21) In Python, contrary to most Pascal-derived vectorial routines, it accepts also a bidimensional tuple without returning gibberish: the third item will always be ignored. So this is a 2D-only routine.

Example

PROCEDURE Example;
VAR
    v1, v2 : VECTOR;
BEGIN
    v1.x := 12; v1.y := 1; { z vals in 3-dimensional vectors will be ignored }
    v2.x := 12; v2.y := 1;
    Message(Concat( EqPt(v1, v2, 0) ));
END;
Run(Example);

v1 = (12, 1, 999) # z vals in 3-dimensional vectors will be ignored
v2 = (12, 1, 0)
vs.Message( str(vs.EqualPt(v1, v2, 0)) ) # surprisingly returns true in spite of the tuples being different, because the third item will be ignored.
