public class Product
extends AbstractExpression

The product operator takes 1 or more sub-expressions which all have single cardinality and have numerical base-types. The result is A single float or, if all sub-expressions are of integer type, A single integer that corresponds to the product of the numerical values of the sub-expressions. If any of the sub-expressions are NULL then the operator results in NULL.

Field Detail

CLASS_TAG

Constant Field Values

Constructor Detail

Product

public Product(ExpressionParent parent)

Constructs expression.

Parameters:

parent - parent of this expression

Method Detail

getClassTag

public java.lang.String getClassTag()

Description copied from interface: XmlNode

Gets QTI class name of this node.

QTI class name has very important role during loading/saving nodes.

For example: Java class name is AssessmentTest; QTI class name is assessmentTest.

Specified by:

getClassTag in interface XmlNode

Specified by:

getClassTag in class AbstractNode

Returns:

QTI class name of this node

getProducedBaseTypes

public BaseType[] getProducedBaseTypes()

Description copied from interface: Expression

Gets list of all possible produced baseTypes after evaluation (possible baseTypes of evaluated result). Result of this method can change in time.

Static example is expression or. Expression or can produce only boolean baseType and it cannot change.

Dynamic example is expression variable. Expression variable can produce any baseType before evaluation. After evaluation it produces baseType of its result (and it can change every evaluation call!).

Null expression, empty containers (multiple, ordered, record), or NULL values produces all baseTypes. So they are compatible with anything.

Specified by:

getProducedBaseTypes in interface Expression

Overrides:

getProducedBaseTypes in class AbstractExpression

Returns:

list of all possible produced baseTypes after evaluation

evaluateSelf

protected Value evaluateSelf(int depth)

Description copied from class: AbstractExpression

Evaluates this expression. All children must be already evaluated. Contains no checks.

Specified by:

evaluateSelf in class AbstractExpression

Parameters:

depth - depth of this expression in expression tree (root's depth = 0)

Returns:

result of evaluation
