Constructor Detail

MCPSolution

public MCPSolution(RunData runData)

Specified by:
next in class Solution
Parameters:
runData - List of run parameters
Returns:
True if a scheme is implemented for that equation
See Also:
RunData

hasOption

public boolean hasOption(java.lang.String option)
Tells whether the solution implements a option

Specified by:
hasOption in class Solution
Parameters:
option - The the option to implement
Returns:
True if the option is implemented
