## Description ### Functions and Procedures
`procedure PeanoCurve(InitialOrient: boolean; Angle: TSFCAngle; InitialLevel: Cardinal; Step: TSFCStepFunction; StepData: Pointer);`
Low-level procedures to generate consecutive Peano and Hilbert curve points. See e.g. "Graphic Gems II" (gem I.8) or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space-filling_curve for nice description. Step is a function that goes to a neighbor 2D point, and "marks" it (whatever it means for your usage). If the starting point is "marked" at the beginning, using Peano or Hilbert curve guarantees that you will eventually "mark" the whole 2D space. Peano curve fills a plane size 3ˆLevel, Hilbert curve fills size 2ˆLevel. Angle is an initial orientation, determining in which direction the curve will be drawn. If you want to fill the space up and to the left from the initial point (according to conventions that Angle = 0 is right, Angle = 1 is up, and so on (CCW)), then use: InitialOrient = false and Angle = 0 for `PeanoCurve`. InitialOrient = true and Angle = 0 for HilbertCurve.
`procedure HilbertCurve(InitialOrient: boolean; Angle: TSFCAngle; InitialLevel: Cardinal; Step: TSFCStepFunction; StepData: Pointer);`
`function StrToSFCurveClass(const s: string): TSpaceFillingCurveClass;`
For curve name (matching some TSpaceFillingCurve.SFCName), return appropriate class. Not case-sensitive. ###### Exceptions raised EInvalidSFCurveClassName For unknown curve names.
`function AllSFCurveClassesNames: string;`
All non-abstract space-filling curve names. Separated by commas, in apostrophes.
### Types
`TSFCAngle = 0..3;`
Angle for space-filling curves. Let's say 0 = 0 degrees, 1 = 90 degrees, 2 = 180, 3 = 270, but actually it doesn't matter much — it all a matter of convention here.
`TSFCStepFunction = procedure (Angle: TSFCAngle; StepFuncData: Pointer);`
`TSpaceFillingCurveClass = class of TSpaceFillingCurve;`
### Constants
`AvailableSFCurveClasses: array[0..2]of TSpaceFillingCurveClass= (TSwapScanCurve, THilbertCurve, TPeanoCurve);`
Available space-filling curves (non-abstract TSpaceFillingCurve descendants).
