Overview

SFS 1.1 Description

A LineString is a Curve with linear interpolation between Points. Each consecutive pair of Points defines a Line segment.

Notes

LineString is defined as a module and is provided primarily for the sake of documentation. Implementations need not necessarily include this module itself. Therefore, you should not depend on the kind_of? method to check type. Instead, use the provided check_type class method (or === operator) defined in the Type module.

#point_n(n_) ⇒ Object

SFS 1.1 Description

Returns the specified Point N in this LineString.
