Method Detail

nextStep

public boolean nextStep()

Determines and executes next step of the algorithm in a new thread of execution.

Returns:

Returns true if being initialized or step_index_d is -1 as initialized. Returns true if step_index_d does not equal step_count. Returns false if they are equal.

prevStep

public boolean prevStep()

Determines and executes previous step of the algorithm in a new thread of execution.

Returns:

Returns true if step_index_d is not equal to 0.

setOutputPanel

public boolean setOutputPanel(OutputPanel out_panel_a)

Initializes the output panel.

Parameters:

out_panel_a - output panel object

Returns:

Returns true
