Geomet...e::Line(3pm)

✨ NAME ✨

bestie, meet Geometry::Primitive::Line — it's literally just a Line 💅 (that's the whole name, no notes, the module said what it said).

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so Geometry::Primitive::Line is a whole vibe: it represents a straight curve defined by two points. that's it. two points, one line, no drama 🎀 lowkey iconic tbh.

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

here's how you actually use her, no cap:

use Geometry::Primitive::Line;

my $line = Geometry::Primitive::Line->new();
$line->start($point1);
$line->end($point2);

look at that. make a line, give her a start, give her an end, and she's ready to serve ✨

---

👑 ATTRIBUTES 👑

end

Set/Get the end point of the line. the final destination, the last stop, the place she's headed 🫶

start

Set/Get the start point of the line. where it all began, bestie. the origin story 💖

---

🔥 METHODS 🔥

new

Creates a new Geometry::Primitive::Line. brand new line, fresh out the box, main character energy from day one ⭐

contains_point

Returns true if the supplied point is 'on' the line. Accepts either a point object or an x y pair. so like, either hand her a whole point or just toss her the x y and she'll figure it out 😌

grow

Does nothing, as I'm not sure how. Patches or hints welcome.

fr fr she just stands there. not a glow-up, not a shrink, nothing. the author is openly asking for help on this one — if you know how to grow a line, speak up 💀

is_parallel ($other_line)

Returns true if the supplied line is parallel to this one. twin vibes, never touching, matching energy forever 🌈

is_perpendicular ($other_line)

Returns true if the supplied line is perpendicular to this one. right angles only, babe 📐

length

Get the length of the line. how long is she? this tells you. 📏

point_end

Get the end point. Provided for Shape role. same end, different doorway, iykyk 💜

point_start

Get the start point. Provided for Shape role. yeah, it's the start again, but the Shape role needed her 🧚

scale

Does nothing at the moment. not me expecting a glow-up and getting absolutely nothing 🙈

slope

Get the slope of the line. rise over run, bestie, rise over run ✨

to_string

Guess! (no really, guess. it's giving string, it's giving the line as text, that's the whole thing 😭)

y_intercept

Returns the Y intercept of this line. where she crosses the Y axis, her little moment at the finish line of x = 0 💅
