NAME

sc::Function - The Function class is an abstract base class that, given a set of coordinates, will compute a value and possibly a gradient and hessian at that point.

SYNOPSIS

#include <function.h>

Inherits sc::SavableState, and sc::Compute.

Inherited by sc::MolecularEnergy, and sc::Volume.

Detailed Description

The Function class is an abstract base class that, given a set of coordinates, will compute a value and possibly a gradient and hessian at that point.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

sc::Function::Function (const Ref< KeyVal > &, double funcacc = DBL_EPSILON, double gradacc = DBL_EPSILON, double hessacc = DBL_EPSILON)

The keyval constructor reads the following keywords:

matrixkit
Gives a SCMatrixKit object. If it is not specified, a default SCMatrixKit is selected.
value_accuracy
Sets the accuracy to which values are computed. The default is the machine accuracy.
gradient_accuracy
Sets the accuracy to which gradients are computed. The default is the machine accuracy.
hessian_accuracy
Sets the accuracy to which hessians are computed. The default is the machine accuracy.

Member Function Documentation

virtual Ref<NonlinearTransform> sc::Function::change_coordinates () [virtual]

An optimizer can call change coordinates periodically to give the function an opportunity to change its coordinate system. A return value of 0 means the coordinates were not changed. Otherwise, a transform object to the new coordinate system is return. The function object applies the transform to any objects it contains. This will obsolete the function data.

Reimplemented in sc::MolecularEnergy.

int sc::Function::do_value (int)

If passed a nonzero number, compute the value the next time compute() is called. Return a nonzero number if the value was previously to be computed.

virtual void sc::Function::save_data_state (StateOut &) [virtual]

Save the base classes (with save_data_state) and the members in the same order that the StateIn CTOR initializes them. This must be implemented by the derived class if the class has data.

Reimplemented from sc::SavableState.
