78 <h4 class="subsection">4.3.4 Real-data DFT Array Format</h4>
79 <a name="index-r2c_002fc2r-multi_002ddimensional-array-format-1"></a>
80
81 <p>The output of a DFT of real data (r2c) contains symmetries that, in
82 principle, make half of the outputs redundant (see <a href="What-FFTW-Really-Computes.html#What-FFTW-Really-Computes">What FFTW Really Computes</a>). (Similarly for the input of an inverse c2r transform.) In
83 practice, it is not possible to entirely realize these savings in an
84 efficient and understandable format that generalizes to
85 multi-dimensional transforms. Instead, the output of the r2c
86 transforms is <em>slightly</em> over half of the output of the
87 corresponding complex transform. We do not &ldquo;pack&rdquo; the data in any
88 way, but store it as an ordinary array of <code>fftw_complex</code> values.
89 In fact, this data is simply a subsection of what would be the array in
90 the corresponding complex transform.
91 </p>
92 <p>Specifically, for a real transform of <em>d</em> (= <code>rank</code>)
93 dimensions n<sub>0</sub>&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;n<sub>1</sub>&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;n<sub>2</sub>&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;&hellip;&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;n<sub>d-1</sub>
94 , the complex data is an n<sub>0</sub>&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;n<sub>1</sub>&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;n<sub>2</sub>&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;&hellip;&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;(n<sub>d-1</sub>/2 + 1)
95 array of
96 <code>fftw_complex</code> values in row-major order (with the division rounded
97 down). That is, we only store the <em>lower</em> half (non-negative
98 frequencies), plus one element, of the last dimension of the data from
99 the ordinary complex transform. (We could have instead taken half of
100 any other dimension, but implementation turns out to be simpler if the
101 last, contiguous, dimension is used.)
102 </p>
103 <a name="index-out_002dof_002dplace-1"></a>
104 <p>For an out-of-place transform, the real data is simply an array with
105 physical dimensions n<sub>0</sub>&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;n<sub>1</sub>&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;n<sub>2</sub>&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;&hellip;&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;n<sub>d-1</sub>
106 in row-major order.
107 </p>
108 <a name="index-in_002dplace-4"></a>
109 <a name="index-padding-3"></a>
110 <p>For an in-place transform, some complications arise since the complex data
111 is slightly larger than the real data. In this case, the final
112 dimension of the real data must be <em>padded</em> with extra values to
113 accommodate the size of the complex data&mdash;two extra if the last
114 dimension is even and one if it is odd. That is, the last dimension of
115 the real data must physically contain
116 2 * (n<sub>d-1</sub>/2+1)
117 <code>double</code> values (exactly enough to hold the complex data). This
118 physical array size does not, however, change the <em>logical</em> array
119 size&mdash;only
120 n<sub>d-1</sub>
121 values are actually stored in the last dimension, and
122 n<sub>d-1</sub>
123 is the last dimension passed to the planner.
