34.3.1 AnalyticSurfaceSegment(...)

This method creates an AnalyticSurfaceSegment object.

Path

odbAccess.AnalyticSurfaceSegment

Required arguments

type

A SymbolicConstant specifying the type of AnalyticSurfaceSegment. Possible values are START, LINE, CIRCLE, and PARABOLA.

data

A sequence of sequences of Floats specifying the coordinates of point/s representing the segment of the AnalyticSurface object. If type=CIRCLE, the first row contains coordinates of the end point and the second row contains coordinates of the center point. If type=PARABOLA, the first row contains coordinates of the middle point and the second row contains coordinates of the end point. If type=START or type=LINE, a single row contains coordinates of the start/end point.

Optional arguments

None.

Return value

An AnalyticSurfaceSegment object.

Exceptions

None.
