								<p>Multi-dimensional transforms work much the same way as one-dimensional
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								transforms: you allocate arrays of <code>fftw_complex</code> (preferably
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								using <code>fftw_malloc</code>), create an <code>fftw_plan</code>, execute it as
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								many times as you want with <code>fftw_execute(plan)</code>, and clean up
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								with <code>fftw_destroy_plan(plan)</code> (and <code>fftw_free</code>).  
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								</p>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<p>FFTW provides two routines for creating plans for 2d and 3d transforms,
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								and one routine for creating plans of arbitrary dimensionality.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								The 2d and 3d routines have the following signature:
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								</p><div class="example">
							 | 
						||
| 
								 |

						||
| 
								 |

							 |

								 | 
							
								                           fftw_complex *in, fftw_complex *out,

							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<p>These routines create plans for <code>n0</code> by <code>n1</code> two-dimensional
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								(2d) transforms and <code>n0</code> by <code>n1</code> by <code>n2</code> 3d transforms,
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								respectively.  All of these transforms operate on contiguous arrays in
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								the C-standard <em>row-major</em> order, so that the last dimension has the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								fastest-varying index in the array.  This layout is described further in
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<a href="Multi_002ddimensional-Array-Format.html">Multi-dimensional Array Format</a>.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								</p>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<p>FFTW can also compute transforms of higher dimensionality.  In order to
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								avoid confusion between the various meanings of the the word
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								“dimension”, we use the term <em>rank</em>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<span id="index-rank"></span>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								to denote the number of independent indices in an array.<a id="DOCF2" href="#FOOT2"><sup>2</sup></a>  For
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								example, we say that a 2d transform has rank 2, a 3d transform has
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								rank 3, and so on.  You can plan transforms of arbitrary rank by
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								means of the following function:
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								</p>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<div class="example">

								<pre class="example">fftw_plan fftw_plan_dft(int rank, const int *n,

						||
|

							 |

							 |

| 
								 | 
							
								<p><code>fftw_plan_dft</code> is not restricted to 2d and 3d transforms,
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								however, but it can plan transforms of arbitrary rank.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								</p>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<p>You may have noticed that all the planner routines described so far
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								have overlapping functionality.  For example, you can plan a 1d or 2d
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								transform by using <code>fftw_plan_dft</code> with a <code>rank</code> of <code>1</code>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								or <code>2</code>, or even by calling <code>fftw_plan_dft_3d</code> with <code>n0</code>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								and/or <code>n1</code> equal to <code>1</code> (with no loss in efficiency).  This
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								pattern continues, and FFTW’s planning routines in general form a
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								“partial order,” sequences of
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<span id="index-partial-order"></span>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								interfaces with strictly increasing generality but correspondingly
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								greater complexity.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								</p>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<p><code>fftw_plan_dft</code> is the most general complex-DFT routine that we
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								describe in this tutorial, but there are also the advanced and guru interfaces,
							 | 
						||
| 
								 |

							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<span id="index-guru-interface-1"></span>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								which allow one to efficiently combine multiple/strided transforms
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								into a single FFTW plan, transform a subset of a larger
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								multi-dimensional array, and/or to handle more general complex-number
							 |

|
