0030 //! The abstract class BoundedCurve describes the
0031 //! common behavior of bounded curves in 3D space. A
0032 //! bounded curve is limited by two finite values of the
0033 //! parameter, termed respectively "first parameter" and
0034 //! "last parameter". The "first parameter" gives the "start
0035 //! point" of the bounded curve, and the "last parameter"
0036 //! gives the "end point" of the bounded curve.
0037 //! The length of a bounded curve is finite.
0038 //! The Geom package provides three concrete classes of bounded curves:
0039 //! - two frequently used mathematical formulations of complex curves:
0040 //! - Geom_BezierCurve,
0041 //! - Geom_BSplineCurve, and
0042 //! - Geom_TrimmedCurve to trim a curve, i.e. to only
0043 //! take part of the curve limited by two values of the
0044 //! parameter of the basis curve.
