LongGene (Jenetics 3.8.0)

java.lang.Object
- org.jenetics.LongGene

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<LongGene>, BoundedGene<Long,LongGene>, Gene<Long,LongGene>, NumericGene<Long,LongGene>, Factory<LongGene>, Mean<LongGene>, Verifiable
```
public final class LongGene
extends Object
implements NumericGene<Long,LongGene>, Mean<LongGene>, Comparable<LongGene>, Serializable
```
NumericGene implementation which holds a 64 bit integer number.
This is a value-based class; use of identity-sensitive operations (including reference equality (==), identity hash code, or synchronization) on instances of LongGene may have unpredictable results and should be avoided.

1.6

                          long min,
                          long max)
```
    Create a new random LongGene with the given value and the given range. If the value isn't within the interval [min, max], no exception is thrown. In this case the method AbstractBoundedGene.isValid() returns false.
    
    Parameters:
    
    value - the value of the gene.
    
    min - the minimal valid value of this gene (inclusively).
    
    max - the maximal valid value of this gene (inclusively).
    
    Returns:
    
    a new LongGene with the given parameters.

public static LongGene of(long value,
                          LongRange range)
```
    Create a new random LongGene with the given value and the given range. If the value isn't within the interval [min, max], no exception is thrown. In this case the method AbstractBoundedGene.isValid() returns false.
    
    Parameters:
    
    value - the value of the gene.
    
    range - the long range to use
    
    Returns:
    
    a new random LongGene
    
    Throws:
    
    NullPointerException - if the given range is null.

public static LongGene of(long min,
                          long max)
```
    Create a new random LongGene. It is guaranteed that the value of the LongGene lies in the interval [min, max].
    
    Parameters:
    
    min - the minimal valid value of this gene (inclusively).
    
    max - the maximal valid value of this gene (inclusively).
    
    Returns:
    
    a new LongGene with the given parameters.

```
public static LongGene of(LongRange range)
```
    Create a new random LongGene. It is guaranteed that the value of the LongGene lies in the interval [min, max].
    
    Parameters:
    
    range - the long range to use
    
    Returns:
    
    a new random LongGene
    
    Throws:
    
    NullPointerException - if the given range is null.

  - newInstance
```
public LongGene newInstance(Number number)
```
    Description copied from interface: BoundedGene
    
    Create a new gene from the given value and the current bounds.
    
    Specified by:
    
    newInstance in interface NumericGene<Long,LongGene>
    
    Parameters:
    
    number - the value of the new gene.
    
    Returns:
    
    a new gene with the given value.
  - newInstance
```
public LongGene newInstance()
```
    Description copied from interface: Gene
    
    Return a new, random gene with the same type and with the same constraints than this gene. For all genes returned by this method holds gene.getClass() == gene.newInstance().getClass(). Implementations of this method has to use the Random object which can be fetched from the RandomRegistry.
