Sort PVector array by distance

Use the sketch from this link below as a model: Forum.Processing.org/two/discussion/19469/sort-a-pvector-array#Item_9 But change its Comparator::compare() to use dist() instead.

Accessing functions from Java Generics

If you intend to sort() your arrays or collections by some numerical value, you can make your classes implements DoubleSupplier: import java.util.function.DoubleSupplier; class SomeClass implements DoubleSupplier { float x; @Override double getAsDouble() { return x; } } And use the Comparator below in order to sort() by ascending numerical order: import java.util.Comparator; import java.util.function.DoubleSupplier; import java.util.Arrays; import java.util.Collections; static f…

Accessing functions from Java Generics

Even If we had 2 or more classes w/ the exactly same code, Java would still “see” them as different from each: void setup() { MyVec vec1 = new MyVec(); MyVecTwin vec2 = new MyVecTwin(); println(MyVec.class.isInstance(vec1)); // true println(MyVec.class.isInstance(vec2)); // false exit(); } class MyVec { float x = random(-100, 100), y = random(-100, 100), z; @Override String toString() { return "[ " + x + ", " + y + ", " + z + " ]"; } } class MyVecTwin { // exactly same…
