Method Detail

perform

R perform(T left,
          T right)

Has to be implemented to perform the actual operation. The order of operands might be important or not, depending, if the operation is commutative or not.

Parameters:

left - the left operand to be used in the operation

right - the right operand to be used in the operation

Returns:

the result of the operation
