FromEndpoints Method (a, b)

Creates a new interval, given its endpoints.

Declaration Syntax

Visual Basic

Visual C++

public static Interval FromEndpoints(
	double a,
	double b
)

Public Shared Function FromEndpoints ( _
	a As Double, _
	b As Double _
) As Interval

public:
static Interval FromEndpoints(
	double a, 
	double b
)

static member FromEndpoints : 
        a:float * 
        b:float -> Interval

Parameters

a (Double): The left (lower) endpoint of the interval.

b (Double): The right (upper) endpoint of the interval.

Return Value

The specified interval.

Remarks

If width of the interval is very much smaller than its endpoint values, accuracy will be better maintained by constructing the interval using one endpoint and its width.
