Public method to get the intensity.

Specified by:

getIntensity in class WaveLengthSpectrum

Parameters:

lambda - the wavelength (is ignored)

Returns:

double the intensity

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Public toString to report useful information.

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

String information String.
