FunctionSpace class

$\begin{classdesc}{FunctionSpace}{} \class{FunctionSpace}\xspace objects are used... ... the \class{Domain}\xspace of the \class{FunctionSpace}\xspace . \end{classdesc}$
The following methods are available:
$\begin{methoddesc}[FunctionSpace]{getDim}{} returns the spatial dimension of the \class{Domain}\xspace of the \class{FunctionSpace}\xspace . \end{methoddesc}$

$\begin{methoddesc}[FunctionSpace]{getX}{} returns the location of the {data sample points}\index{data sample!points}\xspace . \end{methoddesc}$

$\begin{methoddesc}[FunctionSpace]{getNormal}{} If the domain of functions in the... ...{data sample!points}\xspace . Otherwise an exception is raised. \end{methoddesc}$

$\begin{methoddesc}[FunctionSpace]{getSize}{} returns a \class{Data}\xspace objec... ...ints}\index{data sample!points}\xspace . The size may be zero. \end{methoddesc}$

$\begin{methoddesc}[FunctionSpace]{getDomain}{} returns the \class{Domain}\xspace of the \class{FunctionSpace}\xspace . \end{methoddesc}$

$\begin{methoddesc}[FunctionSpace]{setTags}{new_tag, mask} assigns a new tag \var... ... Use the \var{setTagMap} to assign a tag name to \var{new_tag}. \end{methoddesc}$

$\begin{methoddesc}[FunctionSpace]{__eq__}{arg} (python == operator) returns \con... ...the same domain. Otherwise \constant{False}\xspace is returned. \end{methoddesc}$

$\begin{methoddesc}[FunctionSpace]{__ne__}{arg} (python != operator) returns \con... ...he same domain. Otherwise \constant{False}\xspace is returned. \end{methoddesc}$

$\begin{methoddesc}[Domain]{__str__}{g} (python str() function) returns string representation of the \class{Domain}\xspace . \end{methoddesc}$

The following function provide generators for FunctionSpace objects:
$\begin{funcdesc}{Function}{domain} returns the general \class{FunctionSpace}\xsp... ...defined over the whole geometric region defined by \var{domain}. \end{funcdesc}$

$\begin{funcdesc}{ContinuousFunction}{domain} returns the continuous \class{Funct... ...d by \var{domain} and assumed to represent a continuous function. \end{funcdesc}$

$\begin{funcdesc}{FunctionOnBoundary}{domain} returns the continuous \class{Funct... ...on the boundary of the geometric region defined by \var{domain}. \end{funcdesc}$

$\begin{funcdesc}{FunctionOnContactZero}{domain} returns the contact \class{Funct... .... The discontinuity is defined when \var{domain} is instantiated. \end{funcdesc}$

$\begin{funcdesc}{FunctionOnContactOne}{domain} returns the contact \class{Functi... .... The discontinuity is defined when \var{domain} is instantiated. \end{funcdesc}$

$\begin{funcdesc}{Solution}{domain} returns the solution \class{FunctionSpace}\in... ...al differential equations \index{partial differential equation}. \end{funcdesc}$

$\begin{funcdesc}{ReducedSolution}{domain} returns the reduced solution \class{Fu... ...ation} with a reduced smoothness for the solution approximation. \end{funcdesc}$
