24 //! \brief Provides an algorithm for finding solutions of rings between given radii.
25 //!
26 //! The RingFinder is a class which implements a ring finding algorithm. It is passed
27 //! two radii and it tries to find solutions of rings that would fill the given space.
28 //!
29 //! \note It is not fool-proof and does not always yield a solution, never assume
30 //! \note that one is a available as none is guaranteed.
31 //!

60 //! Compares this solution with \c other and determines which
61 //! one is superior.
62 //!
63 //! A solution is considered superior if solution has less
64 //! components than the other one. If both solution have an
65 //! equal amount components, the solution with a lesser maximum
66 //! ring number is found superior, as such solutions should
67 //! yield less new primitives and cleaner definitions.
68 //!
69 //! The solution which is found superior to every other solution
70 //! will be the one returned by \c RingFinder::bestSolution().

85 //! \brief Tries to find rings between \c r0 and \c r1.
86 //!
87 //! This is the main algorithm of the ring finder. It tries to use math
88 //! to find the one ring between r0 and r1. If it fails (the ring number
89 //! is non-integral), it finds an intermediate radius (ceil of the ring
90 //! number times scale) and splits the radius at this point, calling this
91 //! function again to try find the rings between r0 - r and r - r1.
92 //!
93 //! This does not always yield into usable results. If at some point r ==
94 //! r0 or r == r1, there is no hope of finding the rings, at least with
95 //! this algorithm, as it would fall into an infinite recursion.
96 //!
97 //! \param r0 the lower radius of the ring space
98 //! \param r1 the higher radius of the ring space
99 //! \returns whether it was possible to find a solution for the given
100 //! \returns ring space.
101 //!
