Hello,
Does anyone have a nice link to some code for calculating the gradient
of a function in C?
Thanks,

Google knows all. I bet "Numerical Recipes in C" might also be a safe
bet for a start, but it is not handy at the moment.

Well, as far as I can see Numerical Recipes in C asks you to write the
command yourself (dfunc?). Also, googling does not seem to yield any
immediate answers.
This should be such a common task, that I bet some C users out there has
some nice code to share? Anyone ;)

If you know your function, you should be able to determine its gradient.
For example, if
f(x,y,z) = 2*x + 3*y**2 -sin(z)
then the gradient is the vector
( 2, 6*y, -cos(z) )
If you only have a bunch of points and do not explicitly know
the function, you have to decide how you are going to compute
the gradient. You have to decide how to create the approximation
of the data fit - linear, piecewise linear, least squares, polynomial,
cubic spline, quaternary spline, piecewise continuous multivariate
spline interpolation, ... there are literally an infinite number of
ways you could choose to fit the data. But YOU have to choose.
Check the Linpack, Mathlib, etc., libraries for some possibilities.

Most C functions aren't even differentiable.

If the longest line in the function is 60 chars, and the function
takes 30 lines, the gradient is height/width, or 30/60, i.e. 1 in
2.

Quite possibly. However this isn't comp.sources.wa nted, and the
question isn't a C question, its an algorithm question. You need to
ask in comp.programmin g or somewhere similar. And do a websearch.
And there quite probably isn't a single generic solution.

Hi,
I have a tk.scale bar for which I want the background to change from
blue to red as I slide along it. The mechanics of this I can do, but
the colour gradient I have is very crude - basically the amount of R in
RGB just increases whilst the G and B are fixed values. Whilst this is
not really a python question does anybody have any suggestions about
calculating the RGB values for a smooth colour gradient?
Mark.

I havea 513x513 array of values....I draw a sort of map using that values
for colors... so I have a realistic lanscape (map).
I want to zoom about 60 times that map...and the zoomed area to be drawn on
full screen.
I want to draw it smoth not a square of 60 pixels x 60 pixels
with one color, because I can see blocks and it's not good.
There is a way to interpoate the colors between rectangles to show a smoth
zoom?

How do you provide a consistent gradient fill as a background in a
liquid layout?
If I make a gradient fill image say 1000 pixels wide (and repeat it down
the page) to suit a typical computer display, then only a small portion
of the gradient will show if the viewpoint is a smaller PDA or phone
display.
On the other hand, if viewed full screen on a 1920 pixel wide display, I
would run out of gradient on one or both sides of the page....

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
