Detailed Description

template<typename FloatType>
class dsp::LookupTable< FloatType >

Class for efficiently approximating expensive arithmetic operations.

The approximation is based on linear interpolation between pre-calculated values. The approximated function should be passed as a callable object to the constructor along with the number of data points to be pre-calculated. The accuracy of the approximation can be increased by using more points at the cost of a larger memory footprint.

Consider using LookupTableTransform as an easy-to-use alternative.

Example:

LookupTable<float> lut ([] (size_t i) { return std::sqrt ((float) i); }, 64);
auto outValue = lut[17];

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

LookupTable() [1/2]

template<typename FloatType>

dsp::LookupTable< FloatType >::LookupTable

(

)

Creates an uninitialised LookupTable object.

You need to call initialise() before using the object. Prefer using the non-default constructor instead.

initialise

LookupTable() [2/2]

template<typename FloatType>

dsp::LookupTable< FloatType >::LookupTable	(	const std::function< FloatType(size_t)> &	functionToApproximate,
		size_t	numPointsToUse
	)

Creates and initialises a LookupTable object.

Parameters

functionToApproximate	The function to be approximated. This should be a mapping from the integer range [0, numPointsToUse - 1].
numPointsToUse	The number of pre-calculated values stored.

Member Function Documentation

initialise()

template<typename FloatType>

void dsp::LookupTable< FloatType >::initialise	(	const std::function< FloatType(size_t)> &	functionToApproximate,
		size_t	numPointsToUse
	)

Initialises or changes the parameters of a LookupTable object.

This function can be used to change what function is approximated by an already constructed LookupTable along with the number of data points used. If the function to be approximated won't ever change, prefer using the non-default constructor.

Parameters

functionToApproximate	The function to be approximated. This should be a mapping from the integer range [0, numPointsToUse - 1].
numPointsToUse	The number of pre-calculated values stored.

getUnchecked()

template<typename FloatType>

FloatType dsp::LookupTable< FloatType >::getUnchecked ( FloatType  index ) const

noexcept

Calculates the approximated value for the given index without range checking.

Use this if you can guarantee that the index is non-negative and less than numPoints. Otherwise use get().

Parameters

index

The approximation is calculated for this non-integer index.

Returns

The approximated value at the given index.

get()

template<typename FloatType>

FloatType dsp::LookupTable< FloatType >::get ( FloatType  index ) const

noexcept

Calculates the approximated value for the given index with range checking.

This can be called with any input indices. If the provided index is out-of-range either the bottom or the top element of the LookupTable is returned.

If the index is guaranteed to be in range use the faster getUnchecked() instead.

Parameters

index

The approximation is calculated for this non-integer index.

Returns

The approximated value at the given index.

getNumPoints()

template<typename FloatType>

size_t dsp::LookupTable< FloatType >::getNumPoints ( ) const

noexcept

Returns the size of the LookupTable, i.e., the number of pre-calculated data points.

Referenced by dsp::LookupTable< Type >::get(), dsp::LookupTable< Type >::getUnchecked(), and dsp::LookupTable< Type >::isInitialised().

isInitialised()

template<typename FloatType>

bool dsp::LookupTable< FloatType >::isInitialised ( ) const

noexcept

Returns true if the LookupTable is initialised and ready to be used.
