Description

The DegreeOfFreedom class holds the value of a degree of freedom (i.e, Field value) at a node (specifically a FuncNode) of a FEMesh. It also holds some other bookkeeping data, which isn't described here because it isn't directly useful to authors of OOF2 extensions.

Methods

Only methods relevant for OOF2 extensions are listed here.

`double value() const, double& value()`

value simply returns the numerical value of the degree of freedom. Usually this is a component of a Field.
