DESCRIPTION

These routines form a simple linear algebra package used internally by VolPack. The routines are also available as utility routines for use by the application.

vpIdentity3 assigns the identity matrix to a 3-by-3 matrix.

vpIdentity4 assigns the identity matrix to a 4-by-4 matrix.

vpNormalize3 normalizes a 3-element vector (so the magnitude is 1.0). The result overwrites the source vector.

vpMatrixVectorMult4 multiplies a 4-by-4 matrix by a 4-element column vector and stores the result in the destination vector (v_dst = m . v_src).

vpMatrixMult4 multiplies two 4-by-4 matrices and stores the result in the destination matrix (m_dst = m_src1 . m_src2).

vpCrossProduct computes the cross product of two 3-element vectors and stores the result in the destination vector (v_dst = v_src1 x v_src2).

vpSolveSystem4 solves the linear system m . x = b for each right-hand-side vector in the b array. The solution vectors overwrite the vectors in the b array. The solution is computed using Gauss-Jordan elimination with partial pivoting and implicit scaling.

vpSetVector3 initializes the components of a 3-element vector (v_dst = [x, y, z]). It is a macro.

vpSetVector4 initializes the components of a 4-element vector (v_dst = [x, y, z, w]). It is a macro.

ERRORS

vpNormalize3 and vpSolveSystem4 normally return VP_OK. The following error return value is possible:
VPERROR_SINGULAR
The vector is a 0 vector (vpNormalize3 only), or the matrix is singular (vpSolveSystem4 only).
