UnitMap
-
Unit (null) Mapping
- Description:
- A UnitMap is a unit (null) Mapping that has no effect on the
coordinates supplied to it. They are simply copied. This can be
useful if a Mapping is required (e.g. to pass to another
routine) but you do not want it to have any effect.
The Nin and Nout attributes of a UnitMap are always equal and
are specified when it is created.
- Constructor Function:
- AST_UNITMAP
-
Inheritance
- The UnitMap class inherits from the Mapping class.
-
Attributes
- The UnitMap class does not define any new attributes beyond
those which are applicable to all Mappings.
-
Functions
- The UnitMap class does not define any new routines beyond those
which are applicable to all Mappings.
