Class AbsoluteErrorBound

java.lang.Object
com.pervasive.datarush.operators.assertion.AbsoluteErrorBound
All Implemented Interfaces:
FloatingPointTolerance

public class AbsoluteErrorBound extends Object implements FloatingPointTolerance
Checks equivalence based on the absolute error between two floating point numbers. Two values are considered equal if this error is less than a fixed bound.

Specifically, for two values v1 and v2 and a non-negative bound e, it is checked whether Math.abs(v1 - v2) <= e
