XYZIsAlmostEqualTo(XYZ, Double) Method

Determines whether 2 vectors are the same within the given tolerance.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 25.0.0.0 (25.0.0.0)

Syntax

public bool IsAlmostEqualTo(
	XYZ source,
	double tolerance
)

Public Function IsAlmostEqualTo ( 
	source As XYZ,
	tolerance As Double
) As Boolean

public:
bool IsAlmostEqualTo(
	XYZ^ source, 
	double tolerance
)

member IsAlmostEqualTo : 
        source : XYZ * 
        tolerance : float -> bool

Parameters

source XYZ: The vector to compare with this vector.
tolerance Double: The tolerance for equality check.

Return Value

Boolean
True if the vectors are the same; otherwise, false.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
ArgumentNullException	Thrown when source is .
ArgumentException	Thrown when tolerance is less than 0.

Remarks

This routine uses an input tolerance to compare two vectors to see if they are almost equivalent. Because it is comparing two vectors the tolerance value is not in length units but instead represents the variation in direction between the vectors. For very small tolerance values it should also be possible to compare two points with this method. To compute the distance between two points for a comparison with a larger allowable difference, use DistanceTo(XYZ).
