SVL 1.5

SVL library provides vector and matrix classes, as well as a number of functions for performing vector arithmetic with them. Equation-like syntax is supported via class operators, for example: #include "svl/SVL.h" Vec3 v(1.0, 2.0, 3.0); Mat3 m(1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0); v = 2 * v + m * v; v *= (m / 3.0) * norm(v); cout << v << endl; Both generic (arbitrarily-sized), and fixed-size (2, 3 and 4 element) vectors and matrices are supported. The latter are provided for the efficient manipulation of vectors or points in 2D or 3D space, and make heavy use of inlining for frequently-used operations. (One of the design goals of SVL was to ensure that it was as fast as the C-language, macro-based libraries it was written to replace.) SVL is a subset of VL, a more extensive vector library, which in addition contains classes for sparse vector/matrices, sub-vector/matrices, and implementations of some iterative solvers. Whereas with SVL the component type of vectors and matrices is defined with a compile-time switch, with VL you specify the type explicitly (Vec2f, Vec2d) and can, for example, mix matrices of doubles with vectors of floats. SVL requires C++. It is known to compile under Irix CC, g++, and MSVC..
