Interface GenericCounter<E>

All Known Implementing Classes:

Counter, IntCounter

public interface GenericCounter<E>

Interface to a generic (type-independent) Counter. We go through this interface whenever possible to keep generic the higher-level routines in Distribution and Counters.

Method Summary

double	doubleMax() Returns the value of the maximum entry in this counter, as a double.
double	getCount(E key) Returns the count for this key as a double.
String	getCountAsString(E key) Returns the count for this key as a String.
MapFactory	getMapFactory() Returns the MapFactory used by this counter.
Set<E>	keySet() Returns the Set of keys in this counter.
void	setCount(E key, String s) Sets the count for this key to be the number encoded in the given String.
int	size() Returns the number of entries in this counter.
double	totalDoubleCount() Computes the total of all counts in this counter, and returns it as a double.
