Chris@42 89 <p>FFTW supports several other transform types via a unified <em>r2r</em>
Chris@42 90 (real-to-real) interface,
Chris@42 91 <a name="index-r2r"></a>
Chris@42 92 so called because it takes a real (<code>double</code>) array and outputs a
Chris@42 93 real array of the same size. These r2r transforms currently fall into
Chris@42 94 three categories: DFTs of real input and complex-Hermitian output in
Chris@42 95 halfcomplex format, DFTs of real input with even/odd symmetry
Chris@42 96 (a.k.a. discrete cosine/sine transforms, DCTs/DSTs), and discrete
Chris@42 97 Hartley transforms (DHTs), all described in more detail by the
Chris@42 98 following sections.
Chris@42 99 </p>
Chris@42 100 <p>The r2r transforms follow the by now familiar interface of creating an
Chris@42 101 <code>fftw_plan</code>, executing it with <code>fftw_execute(plan)</code>, and
Chris@42 102 destroying it with <code>fftw_destroy_plan(plan)</code>. Furthermore, all
Chris@42 103 r2r transforms share the same planner interface:
Chris@42 104 </p>

Chris@42 106 <pre class="example">fftw_plan fftw_plan_r2r_1d(int n, double *in, double *out,
Chris@42 107 fftw_r2r_kind kind, unsigned flags);
Chris@42 108 fftw_plan fftw_plan_r2r_2d(int n0, int n1, double *in, double *out,
Chris@42 109 fftw_r2r_kind kind0, fftw_r2r_kind kind1,
Chris@42 110 unsigned flags);

Chris@42 116 unsigned flags);
Chris@42 117 fftw_plan fftw_plan_r2r(int rank, const int *n, double *in, double *out,
Chris@42 118 const fftw_r2r_kind *kind, unsigned flags);

Chris@42 123 <a name="index-fftw_005fplan_005fr2r"></a>
Chris@42 124
Chris@42 125 <p>Just as for the complex DFT, these plan 1d/2d/3d/multi-dimensional
Chris@42 126 transforms for contiguous arrays in row-major order, transforming (real)
Chris@42 127 input to output of the same size, where <code>n</code> specifies the
Chris@42 128 <em>physical</em> dimensions of the arrays. All positive <code>n</code> are
Chris@42 129 supported (with the exception of <code>n=1</code> for the <code>FFTW_REDFT00</code>
Chris@42 130 kind, noted in the real-even subsection below); products of small
Chris@42 131 factors are most efficient (factorizing <code>n-1</code> and <code>n+1</code> for
Chris@42 132 <code>FFTW_REDFT00</code> and <code>FFTW_RODFT00</code> kinds, described below), but
Chris@42 133 an <i>O</i>(<i>n</i>&nbsp;log&nbsp;<i>n</i>) algorithm is used even for prime sizes.
Chris@42 134 </p>
Chris@42 135 <p>Each dimension has a <em>kind</em> parameter, of type
Chris@42 136 <code>fftw_r2r_kind</code>, specifying the kind of r2r transform to be used
Chris@42 137 for that dimension.
Chris@42 138 <a name="index-kind-_0028r2r_0029"></a>
Chris@42 139 <a name="index-fftw_005fr2r_005fkind"></a>
Chris@42 140 (In the case of <code>fftw_plan_r2r</code>, this is an array <code>kind[rank]</code>
Chris@42 141 where <code>kind[i]</code> is the transform kind for the dimension
Chris@42 142 <code>n[i]</code>.) The kind can be one of a set of predefined constants,
Chris@42 143 defined in the following subsections.
Chris@42 144 </p>
Chris@42 145 <p>In other words, FFTW computes the separable product of the specified
Chris@42 146 r2r transforms over each dimension, which can be used e.g. for partial
Chris@42 147 differential equations with mixed boundary conditions. (For some r2r
Chris@42 148 kinds, notably the halfcomplex DFT and the DHT, such a separable
Chris@42 149 product is somewhat problematic in more than one dimension, however,
Chris@42 150 as is described below.)
Chris@42 151 </p>
Chris@42 152 <p>In the current version of FFTW, all r2r transforms except for the
Chris@42 153 halfcomplex type are computed via pre- or post-processing of
Chris@42 154 halfcomplex transforms, and they are therefore not as fast as they
Chris@42 155 could be. Since most other general DCT/DST codes employ a similar
Chris@42 156 algorithm, however, FFTW&rsquo;s implementation should provide at least
Chris@42 157 competitive performance.
