condition_numbers: Condition Numbers

Description

Functions to compute condition numbers for summation operations.

Usage

summation_condition_number(x = 0, kahan = TRUE)
evaluation_condition_number(f, x)

Value

For summation_condition_number, an object with methods to compute the condition number, sum, L1 norm, and to add or subtract values. For evaluation_condition_number, a numeric value representing the condition number of the function evaluation at x.

Arguments

x

A numeric value.

kahan

A logical value indicating whether to use Kahan summation.

f

A function for which to compute the condition number.

Examples

# Create a summation condition number object
scn <- summation_condition_number(kahan = TRUE)
# Add some values
scn$add(1.0)
scn$add(2.0)
scn$add(3.0)
# Compute sum, condition number, and L1 norm
print(scn$sum())
print(scn$condition_number())
print(scn$l1_norm())
# Compute evaluation condition number for a function
f <- function(x) { x^2 + 3*x + 2 }
print(evaluation_condition_number(f, 1.0))
