[section:roadmap History and Roadmap]
|
|
|
|
[h4 Milestone 1: Released March 31st 2006]
|
|
|
|
* Implement gamma/beta/erf functions along with their incomplete counterparts.
|
|
* Generate high quality test data, against which future improvements can be judged.
|
|
* Provide tools for the evaluation of infinite series, continued fractions, and
|
|
rational functions.
|
|
* Provide tools for testing against tabulated test data, and collecting statistics
|
|
on error rates.
|
|
* Provide sufficient docs for people to be able to find their way around the library.
|
|
|
|
[h4 Milestone 2: Released September 10th 2006]
|
|
|
|
* Implement preview release of the statistical distributions.
|
|
* Added statistical distributions tutorial.
|
|
* Implemented root finding algorithms.
|
|
* Implemented the inverses of the incomplete gamma and beta functions.
|
|
* Rewrite erf/erfc as rational approximations (valid to 128-bit precision).
|
|
* Integrated the statistical results generated from
|
|
the test data with Boost.Test: uses a database of expected
|
|
results, indexed by test, floating point type, platform, and compiler.
|
|
* Improved lgamma near 1 and 2 (rational approximations).
|
|
* Improved erf/erfc inverses (rational approximations).
|
|
* Implemented Rational function generation (the Remez method).
|
|
|
|
[h4 Milestone 3: Review candidate (31st Dec 2006)]
|
|
|
|
* Implemented the main probability distribution and density functions.
|
|
* Implemented digamma.
|
|
* Added more factorial functions.
|
|
* Implemented the Hermite, Legendre and Laguerre polynomials plus the
|
|
spherical harmonic functions from TR1.
|
|
* Moved Xiaogang Zhang's elliptic integral code into the library,
|
|
and brought them into line with the rest of the code.
|
|
* Moved Hubert Holin's existing Boost.Math special functions
|
|
into this library and brought them into line with the rest of the code.
|
|
|
|
[h4 Future]
|
|
|
|
* Some TR1 Special functions are still needed, some of these
|
|
(Bessel functions) are mostly
|
|
complete as a result of Xiaogang Zhang's participation in
|
|
the Google Summer of Code 2006, refer to the
|
|
[@https://www.boost-consulting.com:8443/trac/soc/browser/boost/soc/2006
|
|
Boost Consulting Trac Server for the code].
|
|
* Higher level statistical tests, perhaps integrated with Eric Neiblers
|
|
accumulator library.
