Methods Documentation

compute_constraint(times, observer, targets)

Actually do the real work of computing the constraint. Subclasses override this.

Parameters:

timesTime

The times to compute the constraint

observerObserver

the observaton location from which to apply the constraints

targetssequence of Target

The targets on which to apply the constraints.

Returns:

constraint_result2D array of float or bool
