Class Location

java.lang.Object
org.bukkit.Location
All Implemented Interfaces:
FinePosition, Position, Cloneable, ConfigurationSerializable
public class Location extends Object implements Cloneable, ConfigurationSerializable, FinePosition
Represents a 3-dimensional position in a world.
No constraints are placed on any angular values other than that they be specified in degrees. This means that negative angles or angles of greater magnitude than 360 are valid, but may be normalized to any other equivalent representation by the implementation.
