81 <p>Readers from the Fortran world are used to arrays stored in
|
cannam@167
|
82 <em>column-major</em> order (sometimes called “Fortran order”). This is
|
cannam@167
|
83 essentially the exact opposite of row-major order in that, here, the
|
cannam@167
|
84 <em>first</em> dimension’s index varies most quickly.
|
cannam@167
|
85 </p>
|
cannam@167
|
86 <p>If you have an array stored in column-major order and wish to
|
cannam@167
|
87 transform it using FFTW, it is quite easy to do. When creating the
|
cannam@167
|
88 plan, simply pass the dimensions of the array to the planner in
|
cannam@167
|
89 <em>reverse order</em>. For example, if your array is a rank three
|
cannam@167
|
90 <code>N x M x L</code> matrix in column-major order, you should pass the
|
cannam@167
|
91 dimensions of the array as if it were an <code>L x M x N</code> matrix
|
cannam@167
|
92 (which it is, from the perspective of FFTW). This is done for you
|
cannam@167
|
93 <em>automatically</em> by the FFTW legacy-Fortran interface
|
cannam@167
|
94 (see <a href="Calling-FFTW-from-Legacy-Fortran.html#Calling-FFTW-from-Legacy-Fortran">Calling FFTW from Legacy Fortran</a>), but you must do it
|
cannam@167
|
95 manually with the modern Fortran interface (see <a href="Reversing-array-dimensions.html#Reversing-array-dimensions">Reversing array dimensions</a>).
