Etymology

Class that computes partial derivatives by automatic differentiation, thus AutoDiff.

Synopsis

AutoDiffA is an AutoDiff. It is used to be able to distinguish between two template incarnations; e.g. to have one or more specializations, in addition to the general template version.

Example

See for an extensive example the demo program dAutoDiff. It is based on the example given in the AutoDiff class, and shows how to have both an automatic and a specific version of a function object.

// The function, with fixed parameters a,b:
template <class T> class f {
public:
T operator()(const T& x) { return a_p*a_p*a_p*b_p*b_p*x; }
void set(const T& a, const T& b) { a_p = a; b_p = b; }
private:
T a_p;
T b_p;
};
// The specialized function
template <> class f<AutoDiffA<Double> > {
public:
T operator()(const T& x) { return a_p*a_p*a_p*b_p*b_p*x; }
void set(const T& a, const T& b) { a_p = a; b_p = b; }
private:
T a_p;
T b_p;
};
// Call it with different template arguments:
AutoDiff<Double> a1(2,2,0), b1(3,2,1), x1(7);
f<AutoDiff<Double> > f1; f1.set(a1, b1);
cout << "Diff a,b:   " << f1(x1) << endl;
f<AutoDiffA<Double> > f12; f12.set(a1, b1);
cout << "Same....:   " << f12(x1) << endl;
// Result will be:
// Diff a,b:  (504, [756, 336])
// Same....:  (504, [756, 336])
// It needed the template instantiations definitions:
template class f<AutoDiff<Double> >;

Motivation

The class was created to enable separate calculations of the same function.
