|
|
|
<p>A multi-dimensional array whose size is declared at compile time in C
|
|
is <em>already</em> in row-major order. You don’t have to do anything
|
|
special to transform it. For example:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<div class="example">
|
|
<pre class="example">{
|
|
fftw_complex data[N0][N1][N2];
|
|
fftw_plan plan;
|
|
...
|
|
plan = fftw_plan_dft_3d(N0, N1, N2, &data[0][0][0], &data[0][0][0],
|
|
FFTW_FORWARD, FFTW_ESTIMATE);
|
|
...
|
|
}
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
|
|
<p>This will plan a 3d in-place transform of size <code>N0 x N1 x N2</code>.
|
|
Notice how we took the address of the zero-th element to pass to the
|
|
planner (we could also have used a typecast).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>However, we tend to <em>discourage</em> users from declaring their
|
|
arrays in this way, for two reasons. First, this allocates the array
|
|
on the stack (“automatic” storage), which has a very limited size on
|
|
most operating systems (declaring an array with more than a few
|
|
thousand elements will often cause a crash). (You can get around this
|
|
limitation on many systems by declaring the array as
|
|
<code>static</code> and/or global, but that has its own drawbacks.)
|
|
Second, it may not optimally align the array for use with a SIMD
|
|
FFTW (see <a href="SIMD-alignment-and-fftw_005fmalloc.html">SIMD alignment and fftw_malloc</a>). Instead, we recommend
|
|
using <code>fftw_malloc</code>, as described below.
