NAME

PDL::CCS - Sparse N-dimensional PDLs with compressed column storage

SYNOPSIS

 use PDL;
 use PDL::CCS;

 ## ... stuff happens ...

DESCRIPTION

PDL::CCS is now just a wrapper package which pulls in a number of submodules. See the documentation for the individual modules for details.

Modules

PDL::CCS::Nd

Perl class for representing large sparse N-dimensional numeric structures using sorted index vector-vectors and a flat vector of non-missing values. Supports a subset of the perl-side PDL API.

PDL::CCS::Compat

Backwards-compatibility module for Harwell-Boeing compressed column storage.

PDL::CCS::Functions

Some useful generic pure-perl functions for dealing directly with CCS-, CRS-, and index-encoded PDLs.

PDL::CCS::Utils

Low-level generic PDL::PP utilities for Harwell-Boeing encoding and decoding "pointers" along arbitrary dimensions of a sparse PDL given an index list.

PDL::CCS::Ops

Low-level generic PDL::PP utilities for blockwise alignment of pairs of sparse index-encoded PDLs, useful for implementing binary operations.

PDL::CCS::Ufunc

Various low-level ufunc (accumulator) utilities for index-encoded PDLs.

PDL::CCS::MatrixOps

Low-level generic PDL::PP utilities for matrix operations on index-encoded PDLs.

PDL::CCS::IO::FastRaw

PDL::IO::FastRaw wrappers for PDL::CCS::Nd objects.

KNOWN BUGS

  • PDL::CCS::Nd supports only a subset of the PDL API (e.g. is not really a PDL).

  • Binary operations via alignment only work correctly when missing values are annihilators.
