toString method

@override String toString()

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

@override
String toString() => switch (this) {
      none => "none",
      n => "n",
      ne => "ne",
      e => "e",
      se => "se",
      s => "s",
      sw => "sw",
      w => "w",
      nw => "nw",
    };
