| 
 | |
| <p>The multi-dimensional arrays passed to <code>fftw_plan_dft</code> etcetera
 | |
| are expected to be stored as a single contiguous block in
 | |
| <em>row-major</em> order (sometimes called “C order”).  Basically, this
 | |
| means that as you step through adjacent memory locations, the first
 | |
| dimension’s index varies most slowly and the last dimension’s index
 | |
| varies most quickly.
 | |
| </p>
 | |
| <p>To be more explicit, let us consider an array of rank <em>d</em> whose
 | |
| dimensions are n<sub>0</sub> × n<sub>1</sub> × n<sub>2</sub> × … × n<sub>d-1</sub>
 | |
| . Now, we specify a location in the array by a
 | |
| sequence of <em>d</em> (zero-based) indices, one for each dimension:
 | |
| (i<sub>0</sub>, i<sub>1</sub>, i<sub>2</sub>,..., i<sub>d-1</sub>).
 | |
| If the array is stored in row-major
 | |
| order, then this element is located at the position
 | |
| i<sub>d-1</sub> + n<sub>d-1</sub> * (i<sub>d-2</sub> + n<sub>d-2</sub> * (... + n<sub>1</sub> * i<sub>0</sub>)).
 | |
| </p>
 | |
| <p>Note that, for the ordinary complex DFT, each element of the array
 | |
| must be of type <code>fftw_complex</code>; i.e. a (real, imaginary) pair of
 | |
| (double-precision) numbers. 
 | |
| </p>
 | |
| <p>In the advanced FFTW interface, the physical dimensions <em>n</em> from
 | |
| which the indices are computed can be different from (larger than)
 | |
| the logical dimensions of the transform to be computed, in order to
 | |
| transform a subset of a larger array.
 | |
| <span id="index-advanced-interface-2"></span>
 | |
| Note also that, in the advanced interface, the expression above is
 | |
| multiplied by a <em>stride</em> to get the actual array index—this is
 | |
| useful in situations where each element of the multi-dimensional array
 | |
| is actually a data structure (or another array), and you just want to
 | |
| transform a single field. In the basic interface, however, the stride
 | |
| is 1.
