    Returns:
    
    true if the move was successful, otherwise false.
    
    Throws:
    
    SpatialException - if the object is not already in the space or if the number of dimensions in the location does not agree with the number in the space.
  - getLocation

    the location of the specified object or null if the object is not in the space.

    Gets the number of objects currently in the space. This does NOT include any objects that may have been added, but have NOT been moved to a space location.
    
    Returns:

    Parameters:
    
    rule - the rule for handling out of bounds coordinates
  - getObjects
```
Iterable<T> getObjects()
```
    Gets all the object currently in the space. This does NOT include any objects that may have been added, but have NOT been moved to a space location.
    
    Returns:
    
    an iteratable over all the object currently in the space. This does NOT include any objects that may have been added, but have NOT been moved to a space location.
  - getObjectAt
```
T getObjectAt(double... location)
```
    Gets the object at the specified location.

    Returns:
    
    the object at the specified location.
  - getRandomObjectAt
```
T getRandomObjectAt(double... location)

    Returns:
    
    the new location if the move was successful, otherwise null
    
    Throws:
    
    SpatialException - if the object is not already in the space or if the number of dimensions in the displacement greater than the number of grid dimensions.
  - moveByVector

```
    Moves the specifed object the specified distance from its current position along the specified angle.
