Enum Constant Details

NC

public static final ParamComparison NC

Represents the "Non-comparable" comparison type for a parameter in SEM estimation. This type of comparison indicates that the parameter is not comparable to any other parameter in the structural equation model.

EQ

public static final ParamComparison EQ

An enum representing the "EQ" comparison type for a parameter in SEM estimation. This type of comparison indicates that the parameter is equal to another parameter in the structural equation model.

LT

public static final ParamComparison LT

Represents the "LT" comparison type for a parameter in SEM estimation. This type of comparison indicates that the parameter is less than another parameter in the structural equation model.

LE

public static final ParamComparison LE

An enum value representing the "LE" comparison type for a parameter in SEM estimation. This type of comparison indicates that the parameter is less than or equal to another parameter in the structural equation model.

Method Details

values

public static ParamComparison[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared.

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static ParamComparison valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this class with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this class. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum class has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

toString
