public class Matrix
extends Object

Keeps all the values of a 3 by 3 matrix and allows you to do some math with matrices.

Since:

2.1.4

Field Summary

static int	I11 the row=1, col=1 position ('a') in the matrix.
static int	I12 the row=1, col=2 position ('b') in the matrix.
static int	I13 the row=1, col=3 position (always 0 for 2-D) in the matrix.
static int	I21 the row=2, col=1 position ('c') in the matrix.
static int	I22 the row=2, col=2 position ('d') in the matrix.
static int	I23 the row=2, col=3 position (always 0 for 2-D) in the matrix.
static int	I31 the row=3, col=1 ('e', or X translation) position in the matrix.
static int	I32 the row=3, col=2 ('f', or Y translation) position in the matrix.
static int	I33 the row=3, col=3 position (always 1 for 2-D) in the matrix.

Constructor Summary

Matrix()
