toString method

String toString()
override

A string representation of this object.

Some classes have a default textual representation, often paired with a static parse function (like int.parse). These classes will provide the textual representation as their string representation.

Other classes have no meaningful textual representation that a program will care about. Such classes will typically override toString to provide useful information when inspecting the object, mainly for debugging or logging.

Implementation

String toString() {
  String description = "UNKNOWN";
  if (modelType == FLOATING) {
    description = "Floating";
  } else if (modelType == FIXED) {
    description = "Fixed (Scale=${getScale()})";
  }
  return description;
}
