Class Octant

Hierarchy: Object , Octant
public class Octant
Methods for computing and working with octants of the Cartesian plane Octants are numbered as follows:
  \2|1/
 3 \|/ 0
 ---+--
 4 /|\ 7
  /5|6\
 
If line segments lie along a coordinate axis, the octant is the lower of the two possible values.
