Opinions on Canary Wharf area ?

<t>Well, tube in London is horrible, all the delays. I'd never want to commute to work in the morning That's why I'm renting 2minutes walking distance to Canary Wharf(south quay dlr), it's not like you have time to go anywhere during the weekdays, and during weekends you'll end up taking the tube an...

2d and 3d graphing within C++

<t>I use my own opengl code to do that. Basically it's just a separate C++ class which uses SDL to create a window and has a constructor of a form (vector<double> &x, vector<doubly> y). One nice thing about opengl that it handles scaling on its own as all the coordinates are from (-1,1). </t>

Variance of a stochastic integral?

On the left you have variance and on the right you have a constant, so the right part is your answer, unless I'm missing something

How do I implement a pointer to Function with variable arguments?

<t>For that matter you could for example do this. Not too elegant, but all the work goes into implementing the RnToRm class and function converters/wrappers, so the users of the class don't have to deal with the headache. Also possible to overload f member so that it returns the same type that goes ...

How do I implement a pointer to Function with variable arguments?

<t>QuoteOriginally posted by: wynand494hi dirty droog,thanks for your reply but i do not want to have to couple the basic function with the newton raphson solver. I like the idea of the newton raphson giving the solution based on just the function name. Zedroon's idea of passing the rest of the argu...

How do I implement a pointer to Function with variable arguments?

<t>Hm, just from top of my head, why don't you pass the pointer to an array of variables instead of listing all the variables? So you can have a generic form ofSomeFunction(double x, vector<double> param). As you only need to change x in NewtonRhapson you can pass through param without caring how ma...

this looks very similar to (incomplete) gamma function, so I doubt this has analytical form, though others may know better

normally, it just goespush ...push ...call [ ]the question is the handling of the stack after function returns, some calling conventions tell that function normalizes stack, while others leave it to the calling function.
