    • values

      public static Degree[] values()
      Returns an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared.
      Returns:
      an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared

    • valueOf

      public static Degree valueOf(String name)
      Returns the enum constant of this class with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this class. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
      Parameters:
      name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
      Returns:
      the enum constant with the specified name
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if this enum class has no constant with the specified name
      NullPointerException - if the argument is null

    • getPitch

      public int getPitch()
      The relative pitch of the degree
      Returns:
      [0-11]

    • getNatural

      public Degree.Natural getNatural()

    • getAlteration

      public int getAlteration()
      Returns:
      -1, 0 or 1. For ex. -1 for b9.

    • toStringShort

      public String toStringShort()
      Returns:
      "0", "3", "b9", "#11", etc

    • getDegree

      public static Degree getDegree(Degree.Natural n, int alt)
      Example: n=NINTH, alt=+1, return NINTH_SHARP
      Parameters:
      n -
      alt -
      Returns:
      A ChordDegree or null if no degree match

    • getDegrees

      public static List<Degree> getDegrees(int relPitch)
      The degrees who match the relative pitch. Ex. relPitch=4 => THIRD Ex. relPitch=3 => NINTH_SHARP and THIRD_FLAT
      Parameters:
      relPitch -
      Returns:
      A Degree list with 1 or 2 degrees.

    • getDegreeMostProbable

      public static Degree getDegreeMostProbable(int relPitch)
      Provide the "most probable" degree for the specified relpitch.

      Ex: relPitch=3 (Eb) => return THIRD_MINOR rather than NINTH_SHARP.

      Parameters:
      relPitch - 0-11
      Returns:
      A Degree. Can't be null.
