Detailed Description

template<typename P, typename V, typename F>
class IECore::PerlinNoise< P, V, F >

The PerlinNoise class template provides perlin noise functions across arbitrary dimensions of input and output. It uses the VectorTraits.h and VectorOps.h functionality to operate with different input and output types. P is the type of the Point class over which the noise is defined and V is the type of the value computed as the noise result. Both P and V must be types for which VectorTraits have been properly defined. F is the type of a functor providing a falloff function - see SmoothStepFalloff for an example of one of these.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<typename P , typename V , typename F >

IECore::PerlinNoise< P, V, F >::PerlinNoise

(

unsigned long int

seed = 0

)

Constructs a new PerlinNoise object, passing the seed used by the random number generator to construct the gradient and permutations tables.

Member Function Documentation

template<typename P , typename V , typename F >

void IECore::PerlinNoise< P, V, F >::initGradients

(

unsigned long int

seed

)

Reinitialises the random gradient table using a potentially different seed.

template<typename P , typename V , typename F >

Value IECore::PerlinNoise< P, V, F >::noise

(

const Point &

p

)

const [inline]

Computes the noise value at the given point. The components of the returned value will range from -0.5 to 0.5.

template<typename P , typename V , typename F >

Value IECore::PerlinNoise< P, V, F >::operator()

(

const Point &

p

)

const [inline]

Computes the noise value at the given point. The components of the returned value will range from -0.5 to 0.5.
