org.scijava.parse.Group
- All Implemented Interfaces:
Comparable<Operator>
A group is a special N-ary operator delineated by a left-hand symbol and a
right-hand symbol, with comma-separated arguments.
Typically, these are various forms of parentheses, although in principle any pair of two distinct symbols is allowed.

matches
Returns true iff the given group is the same as this one, in terms of token (lefthand symbol), terminator (righthand symbol) and precedence.Note that this method intentionally does not compare arity; the idea is that if you have a
Group
and callinstance()
to duplicate it, that copy will match this one, even though the copy initially starts at arity 0. -
getArity

1 for unary, 2 for binary, etc. -
isInfix
public boolean isInfix()Description copied from class:Operator
True iff the operator is an infix operator (e.g.,a-b
). -
isPrefix
public boolean isPrefix()Description copied from class:Operator
True iff the operator is a prefix operator (e.g.,-a
). -
instance
Creates an instance of a group operator, using this one as a template.The created group will have the same initiator and terminator symbols, as well as the same precedence. But it will begin as a nullary group until
incArity()
is called. -
