DeadZone is an interface that tells if a given value is inside the dead-zone. It is not very heavily used in the framework.

package ftc.electronvolts.util;

/**
 * This file was made by the electronVolts, FTC team 7393

 * A class that defines a deadzone by returning a boolean as a function of a
 * double
 */
public interface DeadZone {
    boolean isInside(double value);
}

DeadZones is a factory class for the DeadZone interface. It has methods that return DeadZones for min and max, center and delta, and combinations of other DeadZone objects.
