Calc standard resource files
----------------------------

To load a resource file, try:

    read filename

You do not need to add the .cal extension to the filename.  Calc
will search along the $CALCPATH (see ``help environment'').

Normally a resource file will simply define some functions.  By default,
most resource files will print out a short message when they are read.
For example:

    ; read lucas
    lucas(h,n) defined
    gen_u2(h,n,v1) defined
    gen_u0(h,n,v1) defined
    rodseth_xhn(x,h,n) defined
    gen_v1(h,n) defined
    ldebug(funct,str) defined
    legacy_gen_v1(h,n) defined

will cause calc to load and execute the 'lucas.cal' resource file.
Executing the resource file will cause several functions to be defined.
Executing the lucas function:

    ; lucas(149,60)
            1
    ; lucas(146,61)
            0

shows that 149*2^60-1 is prime whereas 146*2^61-1 is not.

By convention, a resource file only defines and/or initializes functions,
objects and variables.  (The regress.cal and testxxx.cal regression test
suite is an exception.)  Also by convention, an additional usage message
regarding important object and functions is printed.

If a resource file needs to load another resource file, it should use
the -once version of read:

    /* pull in needed resource files */
    read -once "surd"
    read -once "lucas"

This will cause the needed resource files to be read once.  If these
files have already been read, the read -once will act as a noop.

The "resource_debug" parameter is intended for controlling the possible
display of special information relating to functions, objects, and
other structures created by instructions in calc resource files.
Zero value of config("resource_debug") means that no such information
is displayed.  For other values, the non-zero bits which currently
have meanings are as follows:

    n           Meaning of bit n of config("resource_debug")

    0   When a function is defined, redefined or undefined at
        interactive level, a message saying what has been done
        is displayed.

    1   When a function is defined, redefined or undefined during
        the reading of a file, a message saying what has been done
        is displayed.

    2   Show func will display more information about a functions
        arguments as well as more argument summary information.

    3   During execution, allow calc standard resource files
        to output additional debugging information.

The value for config("resource_debug") in both oldstd and newstd is 3,
but if calc is invoked with the -d flag, its initial value is zero.
Thus, if calc is started without the -d flag, until config("resource_debug")
is changed, a message will be output when a function is defined
either interactively or during the reading of a file.

Sometimes the information printed is not enough.  In addition to the
standard information, one might want to print:

        * useful obj definitions
        * functions with optional args
        * functions with optional args where the param() interface is used

For these cases we suggest that you place at the bottom of your code
something that prints extra information if config("resource_debug") has
either of the bottom 2 bits set:

        if (config("resource_debug") & 3) {
                print "obj xyz defined";
                print "funcA([val1 [, val2]]) defined";
                print "funcB(size, mass, ...) defined";
        }

If your the resource file needs to output special debugging information,
we recommend that you check for bit 3 of the config("resource_debug")
before printing the debug statement:

        if (config("resource_debug") & 8) {
                print "DEBUG: This a sample debug statement";
        }

The following is a brief description of some of the calc resource files
that are shipped with calc.  See above for example of how to read in
and execute these files.

alg_config.cal

    global test_time
    mul_loop(repeat,x) defined
    mul_ratio(len) defined
    best_mul2() defined
    sq_loop(repeat,x) defined
    sq_ratio(len) defined
    best_sq2() defined
    pow_loop(repeat,x,ex) defined
    pow_ratio(len) defined
    best_pow2() defined

    These functions search for an optimal value of config("mul2"),
    config("sq2"), and config("pow2").  The calc default values of these
    configuration values were set by running this resource file on a
    1.8GHz AMD 32-bit CPU of ~3406 BogoMIPS.

    The best_mul2() function returns the optimal value of config("mul2").
    The best_sq2() function returns the optimal value of config("sq2").
    The best_pow2() function returns the optimal value of config("pow2").
    The other functions are just support functions.

    By design, best_mul2(), best_sq2(), and best_pow2() take a few
    minutes to run.  These functions increase the number of times a
    given computational loop is executed until a minimum amount of CPU
    time is consumed.  To watch these functions progress, one can set
    the config("user_debug") value.

    Here is a suggested way to use this resource file:

        ; read alg_config
        ; config("user_debug",2),;
        ; best_mul2(); best_sq2(); best_pow2();
        ; best_mul2(); best_sq2(); best_pow2();
        ; best_mul2(); best_sq2(); best_pow2();

    NOTE: It is perfectly normal for the optimal value returned to differ
    slightly from run to run.  Slight variations due to inaccuracy in
    CPU timings will cause the best value returned to differ slightly
    from run to run.

    One can use a calc startup file to change the initial values of
    config("mul2"), config("sq2"), and config("pow2").  For example one
    can place into ~/.calcrc these lines:

        config("mul2", 1780),;
        config("sq2", 3388),;
        config("pow2", 176),;

    to automatically and silently change these config values.
    See help/config and CALCRC in help/environment for more information.


beer.cal

    This calc resource is calc's contribution to the 99 Bottles of Beer
    web page:

        http://www.ionet.net/~timtroyr/funhouse/beer.html#calc

     NOTE: This resource produces a lot of output.  :-)


bernoulli.cal

    B(n)

    Calculate the nth Bernoulli number.

    NOTE: There is now a bernoulli() builtin function.  This file is
          left here for backward compatibility and now simply returns
          the builtin function.


bernpoly.cal

    bernpoly(n,z)

    Computes the nth Bernoulli polynomial at z for arbitrary n,z.  See:

        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli_polynomials
        http://mathworld.wolfram.com/BernoulliPolynomial.html

    for further information


bigprime.cal

    bigprime(a, m, p)

    A prime test, base a, on p*2^x+1 for even x>m.


brentsolve.cal

    brentsolve(low, high,eps)

    A root-finder implementwed with the Brent-Dekker trick.

    brentsolve2(low, high,which,eps)

    The second function, brentsolve2(low, high,which,eps) has some lines
    added to make it easier to hardcode the name of the helper function
    different from the obligatory "f".

    See:

        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brent%27s_method
        http://mathworld.wolfram.com/BrentsMethod.html

    to find out more about the Brent-Dekker method.


constants.cal

    e()
    G()

    An implementation of different constants to arbitrary precision.


chi.cal

    Z(x[, eps])
    P(x[, eps])
    chi_prob(chi_sq, v[, eps])

    Computes the Probability, given the Null Hypothesis, that a given
    Chi squared values >= chi_sq with v degrees of freedom.

    The chi_prob() function does not work well with odd degrees of freedom.
    It is reasonable with even degrees of freedom, although one must give
    a sufficiently small error term as the degrees gets large (>100).

    The Z(x) and P(x) are internal statistical functions.

    eps is an optional epsilon() like error term.


chrem.cal

    chrem(r1,m1 [,r2,m2, ...])
    chrem(rlist, mlist)

    Chinese remainder theorem/problem solver.


deg.cal

    deg(deg, min, sec)
    deg_add(a, b)
    deg_neg(a)
    deg_sub(a, b)
    deg_mul(a, b)
    deg_print(a)

    Calculate in degrees, minutes, and seconds.  For a more functional
    version see dms.cal.


dms.cal

    dms(deg, min, sec)
    dms_add(a, b)
    dms_neg(a)
    dms_sub(a, b)
    dms_mul(a, b)
    dms_print(a)
    dms_abs(a)
    dms_norm(a)
    dms_test(a)
    dms_int(a)
    dms_frac(a)
    dms_rel(a,b)
    dms_cmp(a,b)
    dms_inc(a)
    dms_dec(a)

    Calculate in degrees, minutes, and seconds.  Unlike deg.cal, increments
    are on the arc second level.  See also hms.cal.


dotest.cal

    dotest(dotest_file [,dotest_code [,dotest_maxcond]])

    dotest_file

        Search along CALCPATH for dotest_file, which contains lines that
        should evaluate to 1.  Comment lines and empty lines are ignored.
        Comment lines should use ## instead of the multi like /* ... */
        because lines are evaluated one line at a time.

    dotest_code

        Assign the code number that is to be printed at the start of
        each non-error line and after **** in each error line.
        The default code number is 999.

    dotest_maxcond

        The maximum number of error conditions that may be detected.
        An error condition is not a sign of a problem, in some cases
        a line deliberately forces an error condition.  A value of -1,
        the default, implies a maximum of 2147483647.

    Global variables and functions must be declared ahead of time because
    the dotest scope of evaluation is a line at a time.  For example:

        read dotest.cal
        read set8700.cal
        dotest("set8700.line");


factorial.cal

    factorial(n)

    Calculates the product of the positive integers up to and including n.

    See:

        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorial

    for information on the factorial. This function depends on the script
    toomcook.cal.


    primorial(a,b)

    Calculates the product of the primes between a and b. If a is not prime
    the next higher prime is taken as the starting point. If b is not prime
    the next lower prime is taking as the end point b. The end point b must
    not exceed 4294967291.  See:

        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primorial

    for information on the primorial.


factorial2.cal

    This file contents a small variety of integer functions that can, with
    more or less pressure, be related to the factorial.

    doublefactorial(n)

    Calculates the double factorial n!! with different algorithms for
        - n odd
        - n even and positive
        - n (real|complex) sans the negative half integers

    See:

        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_factorial
        http://mathworld.wolfram.com/DoubleFactorial.html

    for information on the double factorial. This function depends on
    the script toomcook.cal, factorial.cal and specialfunctions.cal.


    binomial(n,k)

    Calculates the binomial coefficients for n large and k = k \pm
    n/2. Defaults to the built-in function for smaller and/or different
    values. Meant as a complete replacement for comb(n,k) with only a
    very small overhead.  See:

        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_coefficient

    for information on the binomial. This function depends on the script
    toomcook.cal factorial.cal and specialfunctions.cal.


    bigcatalan(n)

    Calculates the n-th Catalan number for n large. It is usefull
    above n~50,000 but defaults to the builtin function for smaller
    values.Meant as a complete replacement for catalan(n) with only a
    very small overhead.  See:

        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalan_number
        http://mathworld.wolfram.com/CatalanNumber.html

    for information on Catalan numbers. This function depends on the scripts
    toomcook.cal, factorial.cal and specialfunctions.cal.


    stirling1(n,m)

    Calculates the Stirling number of the first kind. It does so with
    building a list of all of the smaller results. It might be a good
    idea, though, to run it once for the highest n,m first if many
    Stirling  numbers are needed at once, for example in a series.  See:

        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stirling_numbers_of_the_first_kind
        http://mathworld.wolfram.com/StirlingNumberoftheFirstKind.html
        Algorithm 3.17,  Donald Kreher and Douglas Simpson, "Combinatorial
          Algorithms", CRC Press, 1998, page 89.

    for information on Stirling numbers of the first kind.


    stirling2(n,m)
    stirling2caching(n,m)

    Calculate the Stirling number of the second kind.
    The first function stirling2(n,m) does it with the sum
                       m
                      ====
                 1    \      n      m - k
                 --    >    k  (- 1)      binomial(m, k)
                 m!   /
                      ====
                      k = 0

    The other function stirling2caching(n,m) does it by way of the
    reccurence relation and keeps all earlier results. This function
    is much slower for computing a single value than stirling2(n,m) but
    is very usefull if many Stirling numbers are needed, for example in
    a series.  See:

        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stirling_numbers_of_the_second_kind
        http://mathworld.wolfram.com/StirlingNumberoftheSecondKind.html

        Algorithm 3.17,  Donald Kreher and Douglas Simpson, "Combinatorial
          Algorithms", CRC Press, 1998, page 89.

    for information on Stirling numbers of the second kind.


    bell(n)

    Calculate the n-th Bell number. This may take some time for large n.
    See:

        http://oeis.org/A000110
        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_number
        http://mathworld.wolfram.com/BellNumber.html

    for information on Bell numbers.


    subfactorial(n)

    Calculate the n-th subfactorial or derangement. This may take some
    time for large n.  See:

        http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Derangement.html
        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derangement

    for information on subfactorials.


    risingfactorial(x,n)

    Calculates the rising factorial or Pochammer symbol of almost arbitrary
    x,n.  See:

        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pochhammer_symbol

    The symbolic handling of infinities. Needed for intnum.cal but might be
    usefull elsewhere, too.


intfile.cal

    file2be(filename)

        Read filename and return an integer that is built from the
        octets in that file in Big Endian order.  The first octets
        of the file become the most significant bits of the integer.

    file2le(filename)

        Read filename and return an integer that is built from the
        octets in that file in Little Endian order.  The first octets
        of the file become the most significant bits of the integer.

    be2file(v, filename)

        Write the absolute value of v into filename in Big Endian order.
        The v argument must be on integer.  The most significant bits
        of the integer become the first octets of the file.

    le2file(v, filename)

        Write the absolute value of v into filename in Little Endian order.
        The v argument must be on integer.  The least significant bits
        of the integer become the last octets of the file.


intnum.cal

    quadtsdeletenodes()
    quadtscomputenodes(order, expo, eps)
    quadtscore(a, b, n)
    quadts(a, b, points)
    quadglcomputenodes(N)
    quadgldeletenodes()
    quadglcore(a, b, n)
    quadgl(a, b, points)
    quad(a, b, points = -1, method = "tanhsinh")
    makerange(start, end, steps)
    makecircle(radius, center, points)
    makeellipse(angle, a, b, center, points)
    makepoints()

    This file offers some methods for numerical integration. Implemented are
    the Gauss-Legendre and the tanh-sinh quadrature.

    All functions are usefull to some extend but the main function for
    quadrature is quad(), which is not much more than an abstraction layer.

    The main workers are quadgl() for Gauss-legendre and quadts() for the
    tanh-sinh quadrature. The limits of the integral can be anything in the
    complex plane and the extended real line. The latter means that infinite
    limits are supported by way of the smbolic infinities implemented in the
    file infinities.cal (automatically linked in by intnum.cal).

    Integration in parts and contour is supported by the "points" argument
    which takes either a number or a list. the functions starting with "make"
    allow for a less error prone use.

    The function to evaluate must have the name "f".

    Examples (shamelessly stolen from mpmath):

        ; define f(x){return sin(x);}
        f(x) defined
        ; quadts(0,pi())  -  2
            0.00000000000000000000
        ; quadgl(0,pi())  -  2
            0.00000000000000000000

    Sometimes rounding errors accumulate, it might be a good idea to crank up
    the working precision a notch or two.

        ; define f(x){ return exp(-x^2);}
        f(x) redefined
        ; quadts(0,pinf())  - pi()
            0.00000000000000000000
        ; quadgl(0,pinf())  - pi()
            0.00000000000000000001

        ; define f(x){ return exp(-x^2);}
        f(x) redefined
        ; quadgl(ninf(),pinf()) - sqrt(pi())
            0.00000000000000000000
        ; quadts(ninf(),pinf()) - sqrt(pi())
           -0.00000000000000000000

    Using the "points" parameter is a bit tricky

        ; define f(x){ return 1/x;  }
        f(x) redefined
        ; quadts(1,1,mat[3]={1i,-1,-1i})  -  2i*pi()
            0.00000000000000000001i
        ; quadgl(1,1,mat[3]={1i,-1,-1i})  -  2i*pi()
            0.00000000000000000001i

    The make* functions make it a bit simpler

        ; quadts(1,1,makepoints(1i,-1,-1i))  -  2i*pi()
            0.00000000000000000001i
        ; quadgl(1,1,makepoints(1i,-1,-1i))  -  2i*pi()
            0.00000000000000000001i

        ; define f(x){ return abs(sin(x));}
        f(x) redefined
        ; quadts(0,2*pi(),makepoints(pi()))  - 4
            0.00000000000000000000
        ; quadgl(0,2*pi(),makepoints(pi()))  - 4
            0.00000000000000000000

    The quad*core functions do not offer anything fancy but the third parameter
    controls the so called "order" which is just the number of nodes computed.
    This can be quite usefull in some circumstances.

        ; quadgldeletenodes()

lambertw.cal

     lambertw(z,branch)

     Computes Lambert's W-function at "z" at branch "branch". See

         http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambert_W_function
         http://mathworld.wolfram.com/LambertW-Function.html
         https://cs.uwaterloo.ca/research/tr/1993/03/W.pdf
         http://arxiv.org/abs/1003.1628

     to get more information.

     This file includes also an implementation for the series described in
     Corless et al. (1996) eq. 4.22 (W-pdf) and Verebic (2010) (arxive link)
     eqs.35-37.

     The series has been implemented to get a different algorithm
     for checking the results. This was necessary because the results
     of the implementation in Maxima, the only program with a general
     lambert-w implementation at hand at that time, differed slightly. The
     Maxima versions tested were: Maxima 5.21.1 and 5.29.1. The current
     version of this code concurs with the results of Mathematica`s(tm)
     ProductLog[branch,z] with the tested values.

     The series is only valid for the branches 0,-1, real z, converges
     for values of z _very_ near the branchpoint -exp(-1) only, and must
     be given the branches explicitly.  See the code in lambertw.cal
     for further information.


linear.cal

    linear(x0, y0, x1, y1, x)

    Returns the value y such that (x,y) in on the line (x0,y0), (x1,y1).
    Requires x0 != y0.


lnseries.cal

    lnseries(limit)
    lnfromseries(n)
    deletelnseries()

    Calculates a series of n natural logarithms at 1,2,3,4...n. It
    does so by computing the prime factorization of all of the number
    sequence 1,2,3...n, calculates the natural logarithms of the primes
    in 1,2,3...n and uses the above factorization to build the natural
    logarithms of the rest of the sequence by sadding the logarithms of
    the primes in the factorization.  This is faster for high precision
    of the logarithms and/or long sequences.

    The sequence need to be initiated by running either lnseries(n) or
    lnfromseries(n) once with n the upper limit of the sequence.


lucas.cal

    lucas(h, n)

    Perform a primality test of h*2^n-1.

    gen_u2(h, n, v1)

    Generate u(2) for h*2^n-1.  This function is used by lucas(h, n),
    as the first term in the lucas sequence that is needed to
    prove that h*2^n-1 is prime or not prime.

    NOTE: Some call this term u(0).  The function gen_u0(h, n, v1)
          simply calls gen_u2(h, n, v1) for such people.  :-)

    gen_v1(h, v)

    Generate v(1) for h*2^n-1.  This function is used by lucas(h, n),
    via the gen_u2(h, n, v1), to supply the 3rd argument to gen_u2.

    legacy_gen_v1(h, n)

    Generate v(1) for h*2^n-1 using the legacy Amdahl 6 method.
    This function sometimes returns -1 for a few cases when
    h is a multiple of 3.  This function is NOT used by lucas(h, n).


lucas_chk.cal

    lucas_chk(high_n)

    Test all primes of the form h*2^n-1, with 1<=h<200 and n <= high_n.
    Requires lucas.cal to be loaded.  The highest useful high_n is 1000.

    Used by regress.cal during the 2100 test set.


mersenne.cal

mfactor.cal

    mfactor(n [, start_k=1 [, rept_loop=10000 [, p_elim=17]]])

    Return the lowest factor of 2^n-1, for n > 0.  Starts looking for factors
    at 2*start_k*n+1.  Skips values that are multiples of primes <= p_elim.
    By default, start_k == 1, rept_loop = 10000 and p_elim = 17.

    The p_elim == 17 overhead takes ~3 minutes on an 200 Mhz r4k CPU and
    requires about ~13 Megs of memory.  The p_elim == 13 overhead
    takes about 3 seconds and requires ~1.5 Megs of memory.

    The value p_elim == 17 is best for long factorizations.  It is the
    fastest even thought the initial startup overhead is larger than
    for p_elim == 13.

    The piforever() function (written by Klaus Alexander Seistrup
    <klaus@seistrup.dk>) was inspired by an algorithm conceived by
    Lambert Meertens.  See also the ABC Programmer's Handbook, by Geurts,
