fftw  3.3.10
About: FFTW is a collection of fast C routines for computing the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) in one or more dimensions. It includes complex, real, symmetric, and parallel transforms, and can handle arbitrary array sizes efficiently.

fftw Documentation

Some Fossies usage hints in advance:

  1. To see the Doxygen generated documentation please click on one of the items in the steelblue colored "quick index" bar above or use the side panel at the left which displays a hierarchical tree-like index structure and is adjustable in width.
  2. If you want to search for something by keyword rather than browse for it you can use the client side search facility (using Javascript and DHTML) that provides live searching, i.e. the search results are presented and adapted as you type in the Search input field at the top right.
  3. Doxygen doesn't incorporate all member files but just a definable subset (basically the main project source code files that are written in a supported language). So to search and browse all member files you may visit the Fossies fftw-3.3.10.tar.gz contents page and use the Fossies standard member browsing features (also with source code highlighting and additionally with optional code folding).
README 
FFTW is a free collection of fast C routines for computing the
Discrete Fourier Transform in one or more dimensions.  It includes
complex, real, symmetric, and parallel transforms, and can handle
arbitrary array sizes efficiently.  FFTW is typically faster than
other publically-available FFT implementations, and is even
competitive with vendor-tuned libraries.  (See our web page
http://fftw.org/ for extensive benchmarks.)  To achieve this
performance, FFTW uses novel code-generation and runtime
self-optimization techniques (along with many other tricks).

The doc/ directory contains the manual in texinfo, PDF, info, and HTML
formats.  Frequently asked questions and answers can be found in the
doc/FAQ/ directory in ASCII and HTML.

For a quick introduction to calling FFTW, see the "Tutorial" section
of the manual.

INSTALLATION
------------

INSTALLATION FROM AN OFFICIAL RELEASE:

Please read chapter 10 "Installation and Customization" of the manual.
In short:

     ./configure
     make
     make install

INSTALLATION FROM THE GIT REPOSITORY:

First, install these programs:

  ocaml, ocamlbuild, autoconf, automake, indent, and libtool.

You also need the ocaml Num library, which was standard in Ocaml but
was removed without warning in OCaml 4.06.0 (3 Nov 2017).  On Fedora
30, try installing the ocaml-num-devel package.

Then, execute

    sh bootstrap.sh
    make
    
The bootstrap.sh script runs configure directly, but if you need to
re-run configure, you must pass the --enable-maintainer-mode flag:

    ./configure --enable-maintainer-mode [OTHER CONFIGURE FLAGS]

Alternatively, you can run

    sh mkdist.sh

which will run the entire bootstrapping process and generate
.tar.gz files similar to those for official releases.

CONTACTS
