# pygplates.XsDouble¶

class pygplates.XsDouble

A property value that represents a double-precision floating-point number. Note that, in python, the float built-in type is double-precision. The ‘Xs’ prefix is there since this type of property value is associated with the XML Schema Instance Namespace.

__init__(float_value)

Create a floating-point property value from a float.

Parameters: float_value (float) – the floating-point value
float_property = pygplates.XsDouble(float_value)


Methods

 __init__(float_value) Create a floating-point property value from a float. accept_visitor(visitor) Accept a property value visitor so that it can visit this property value. clone() Create a duplicate of this property value (derived) instance, including a recursive copy of any nested property values that this instance might contain. get_double() Returns the floating-point value. get_geometry() Extracts the geometry if this property value contains a geometry. get_value([time=0]) Extracts the value, of this possibly time-dependent property value, at the reconstruction time. set_double(float_value) Sets the floating-point value.
get_double()

Returns the floating-point value.

Return type: float
set_double(float_value)

Sets the floating-point value.

Parameters: float_value (float) – the floating-point value
