Overrides:

equals in class java.lang.Object

getSet

public java.lang.Object getSet()

evaluate

public Expression evaluate()

Description copied from class: Expression

This method substitutes the variable with the variable values, if non-null; they can be Contants or other Expressions. Simplification is performed.

Specified by:

evaluate in class Expression
