    • countNodes

      public int countNodes()
      Returns the number of nodes this function has.
      Specified by:
      countNodes in class Program
      Returns:
      number of children nodes

    • countProgramNodes

      public int countProgramNodes()

      Specified by:
      countProgramNodes in class Program
      Returns:
      number of program nodes

    • countFunctionNodes

      public int countFunctionNodes()
      Returns the number of function nodes this function has. This method traverses all the children nodes recursively until the leaf nodes are reached and counts the number of functions.
      Specified by:
      countFunctionNodes in class Program
      Returns:
      number of function nodes

    • toText

      public String toText()
      Returns a string representation of this function. (Instead of toString - Used by Javolution)
      Specified by:
      toText in class Program
      Returns:
      string representation of this function
