Tests if the coordinate supports the given coordinate ``Type``.

        :param coordinate_type: a coordinate type
        :type coordinate_type: ``osid.type.Type``
        :return: ``true`` if the coordinate values associated with this parameter implement the given coordinate
        ``Type,``  ``false`` otherwise
        :rtype: ``boolean``
        :raise: ``IllegalState`` -- ``get_value_syntax() != coordinate``
        :raise: ``NullArgument`` -- ``coordinate_type`` is ``null``
