    • Method Summary

      Modifier and Type Method Description
      double distance​(S f, T b)
      Measures the distance between a formula and some interpretation by taking the minimal distance from all models of the formula to the given interpretation.
      double distance​(T a, T b)
      Measures the distance between the two given interpretations.

      • distance

        double distance​(S f,
                T b)
        Measures the distance between a formula and some interpretation by taking the minimal distance from all models of the formula to the given interpretation.
        Parameters:
        f - some formula
        b - some interpretation.
        Returns:
        the distance between the set of models of the formula to the given interpretation.
