Ops.mvp: Arithmetic Ops Group Methods for 'mvp' objects

In mvp: Fast Symbolic Multivariate Polynomials

Arithmetic Ops Group Methods for mvp objects

Description

Allows arithmetic operators to be used for multivariate polynomials such as addition, multiplication, integer powers, etc.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'mvp'
Ops(e1, e2)
mvp_negative(S)
mvp_times_mvp(S1,S2)
mvp_times_scalar(S,x)
mvp_plus_mvp(S1,S2)
mvp_plus_numeric(S,x)
mvp_eq_mvp(S1,S2)
mvp_modulo(S1,S2)

Arguments

e1,e2,S,S1,S2	Objects of class mvp
x	Scalar, length one numeric vector

Details

The function Ops.mvp() passes unary and binary arithmetic operators “+”, “-”, “*” and “^” to the appropriate specialist function.

The most interesting operator is “*”, which is passed to mvp_times_mvp(). I guess “+” is quite interesting too.

Value

The high-level functions documented here return an object of mvp, the low-level functions documented at lowlevel.Rd return lists. But don't use the low-level functions.

Note

Function mvp_modulo() is distinctly sub-optimal and inst/mvp_modulo.Rmd details ideas for better implementation.

Examples

(p1 <- rmvp(3))
(p2 <- rmvp(3))

p1*p2

p1+p2

p1^3


p1*(p1+p2) == p1^2+p1*p2  # should be TRUE
