C++ PCA, eigen vectors and values

<t>QuoteOriginally posted by: Cuchulainn There's no beating the 60s/70s books by the golden_age_of_numerical_analysis (aka Cold War) guys of the 60s and 70s. Both in English and Russian. They complemented each other's work so well.I think this would be a good place to stick some references in and sp...

Design/implement a sorting algorithm with a special constrained language.

Agreed Athletico.Jack, the problem is simple if tail returns all elements except the first. You will need another command as well to implement your list if tail only returns the last element.

C++ STL algorithm/numeric compliant containers

<t>OK - now I know what you are getting at (didn't read the code sample particularly). As long as your typedef structures have expected properties, iterator does not have to be a class - for example, boost::array::iterator is not a class, but a typedef. don't forget to implement const_iterator, reve...

C++ STL algorithm/numeric compliant containers

<t>I think you are asking why the iterator concept is important. When you implement an iterator according to one of the iterator specs (bidirectional, random access, forward, etc), you get to use algorithms within the std library that know what to do with these concepts. It also makes your code a bi...

Feeling Lost

That's strange. I have the distinct impression that I have read the opposite: PhD does not add to lifetime earnings over the MSc qualification. I think it is a great investment, but not in financial terms.

Log contract hedge

Why? The one payoff depends on s, the other doesn't. therefore, the one payoff has a sensistivity to s and the other doesn't.
