d@0 60 You can install single and long-double precision versions of FFTW,
d@0 61 which replace <code>double</code> with <code>float</code> and <code>long double</code>,
d@0 62 respectively (see <a href="Installation-and-Customization.html#Installation-and-Customization">Installation and Customization</a>). To use these
d@0 63 interfaces, you:
d@0 64
d@0 65 <ul>
d@0 66 <li>Link to the single/long-double libraries; on Unix, <code>-lfftw3f</code> or
d@0 67 <code>-lfftw3l</code> instead of (or in addition to) <code>-lfftw3</code>. (You
d@0 68 can link to the different-precision libraries simultaneously.)
d@0 69
d@0 70 <li>Include the <em>same</em> <code>&lt;fftw3.h&gt;</code> header file.
d@0 71
d@0 72 <li>Replace all lowercase instances of `<samp><span class="samp">fftw_</span></samp>' with `<samp><span class="samp">fftwf_</span></samp>' or
d@0 73 <code>fftwl_</code> for single or long-double precision, respectively.
d@0 74 (<code>fftw_complex</code> becomes <code>fftwf_complex</code>, <code>fftw_execute</code>
d@0 75 becomes <code>fftwf_execute</code>, etcetera.)
d@0 76
d@0 77 <li>Uppercase names, i.e. names beginning with `<samp><span class="samp">FFTW_</span></samp>', remain the
d@0 78 same.
d@0 79
d@0 80 <li>Replace <code>double</code> with <code>float</code> or <code>long double</code> for
d@0 81 subroutine parameters.
d@0 82
d@0 83 </ul>
d@0 84
d@0 85 <p>Depending upon your compiler and/or hardware, <code>long double</code> may not
d@0 86 be any more precise than <code>double</code> (or may not be supported at all,
d@0 87 although it is standard in C99).
