Detailed Description

template<typename RealType>
struct lar::util::RealComparisons< RealType >

Provides simple real number checks.

---

Template Parameters

RealType

type of value to operate on

This class provides some members to perform comparisons between real numbers, allowing for some tolerance for rounding errors.

The tolerance parameter is fixed. Example of usage:

lar::util::RealComparisons<float> check(1e-5);

double const sqrt2 = std::sqrt(2);

// it should print the message
if (check.equal(sqrt2, 1.4142)) {
  std::cout
    << "Square root of 2 is not even close to 1.4142." << std::endl;
}

// it should not print the message
if (check.equal(sqrt2, 1.414213)) {
  std::cout
    << "Square root of 2 is not even close to 1.414213." << std::endl;
}

// this should print the message
if (check.within(std::sqrt(2), 0., 1.41421)) {
  std::cout
    << "Square root of 2 is between 0 and 1.41421 (tops)." << std::endl;
}

// this will probably print the message
double const epsilon = 2.0 - (sqrt2 * sqrt2);
if (check.zero(epsilon)) {
  std::cout
    << "The square of the square root of 2 is roughly 2." << std::endl;
}
