This table presents a catalog of the coefficient-wise math functions supported by Eigen. In this table, a
, b
, refer to Array objects or expressions, and m
refers to a linear algebra Matrix/Vector object. Standard scalar types are abbreviated as follows:
int:
i32
float:
f
double:
d
std::complex<float>
: cf
std::complex<double>
: cd
For each row, the first column list the equivalent calls for arrays, and matrices when supported. Of course, all functions are available for matrices by first casting it as an array: m.array()
.
The third column gives some hints in the underlying scalar implementation. In most cases, Eigen does not implement itself the math function but relies on the STL for standard scalar types, or user-provided functions for custom scalar types. For instance, some simply calls the respective function of the STL while preserving argument-dependent lookup for custom types. The following:
using std::foo;
foo(a[i]);
means that the STL's function std::foo
will be potentially called if it is compatible with the underlying scalar type. If not, then the user must ensure that an overload of the function foo is available for the given scalar type (usually defined in the same namespace as the given scalar type). This also means that, unless specified, if the function std::foo
is available only in some recent c++ versions (e.g., c++11), then the respective Eigen's function/method will be usable on standard types only if the compiler support the required c++ version.
