18.2.10. Class MultiCurve
A MultiCurve
is a geometry collection
composed of Curve
elements.
MultiCurve
is a non-instantiable class.
MultiCurve
Properties
A MultiCurve
is a one-dimensional
geometry.
A MultiCurve
is simple if and only if all
of its elements are simple; the only intersections between
any two elements occur at points that are on the boundaries
of both elements.
A MultiCurve
boundary is obtained by
applying the “mod 2 union rule” (also known as
the “odd-even rule”): A point is in the
boundary of a MultiCurve
if it is in the
boundaries of an odd number of MultiCurve
elements.
A MultiCurve
is closed if all of its
elements are closed.
The boundary of a closed MultiCurve
is
always empty.
