public abstract class SCALAR

extends OBJECT

Scalar Object. Scalar Object (SCALAR) describes the abstract class of all scalar objects. A scalar is a byte string onto which one or more data values have been mapped. Examples of simple scalars (having only a single data value) are binary numbers, character strings, Boolean, and names. Instances of mapped scalars must be encoded according to the sequence of the instance variables for the class. For example, the DATDR must be encoded year, month, day, hour, minute, second, millisecond, microsecond, nanosecond for a date and time or year, month, day for just a date. Another example is the MGRLVL which must be encoded codpnt, mgrlvln.
