RcppAlgos

CRAN status Codacy Badge Dependencies R-CMD-check Codecov test coverage

A collection of high performance functions and iterators implemented in C++ for solving problems in combinatorics and computational mathematics.

The primeSieve function and the primeCount function are both based off of the excellent work by Kim Walisch. The respective repos can be found here: kimwalisch/primesieve; kimwalisch/primecount

Additionally, many of the sieving functions make use of the fast integer division library libdivide by ridiculousfish.

Installation

## install the development version
devtools::install_github("jwood000/RcppAlgos")

Basic Usage

Combinatorics

## Find all 3-tuples combinations of 1:4
comboGeneral(4, 3)
#>      [,1] [,2] [,3]
#> [1,]   1    2    3
#> [2,]   1    2    4
#> [3,]   1    3    4
#> [4,]   2    3    4


## Alternatively, iterate over combinations
a = comboIter(4, 3)
a@nextIter()
#> [1] 1 2 3

a@back()
#> [1] 2 3 4

a[[2]]
#> [1] 1 2 4


## Pass any atomic type vector
permuteGeneral(letters, 3, upper = 4)
#>      [,1] [,2] [,3]
#> [1,] "a"  "b"  "c"
#> [2,] "a"  "b"  "d"
#> [3,] "a"  "b"  "e"
#> [4,] "a"  "b"  "f"


## Flexible partitioning algorithms
partitionsGeneral(0:5, 3, freqs = rep(1:2, 3), target = 6)
#>      [,1] [,2] [,3]
#> [1,]    0    1    5
#> [2,]    0    2    4
#> [3,]    0    3    3
#> [4,]    1    1    4
#> [5,]    1    2    3


## And compositions
compositionsGeneral(0:3, repetition = TRUE)
#>      [,1] [,2] [,3]
#> [1,]    0    0    3
#> [2,]    0    1    2
#> [3,]    0    2    1
#> [4,]    1    1    1


## Generate a reproducible sample
comboSample(10, 8, TRUE, n = 5, seed = 84)
#>      [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] [,6] [,7] [,8]
#> [1,]    3    3    3    6    6   10   10   10
#> [2,]    1    3    3    4    4    7    9   10
#> [3,]    3    7    7    7    9   10   10   10
#> [4,]    3    3    3    9   10   10   10   10
#> [5,]    1    2    2    3    3    4    4    7


## Get combinations such that the product is between
## 3600 and 4000 (including 3600 but not 4000)
comboGeneral(5, 7, TRUE, constraintFun = "prod",
             comparisonFun = c(">=","<"),
             limitConstraints = c(3600, 4000),
             keepResults = TRUE)
#>      [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] [,6] [,7] [,8]
#> [1,]    1    2    3    5    5    5    5 3750
#> [2,]    1    3    3    4    4    5    5 3600
#> [3,]    1    3    4    4    4    4    5 3840
#> [4,]    2    2    3    3    4    5    5 3600
#> [5,]    2    2    3    4    4    4    5 3840
#> [6,]    3    3    3    3    3    3    5 3645
#> [7,]    3    3    3    3    3    4    4 3888


## We can even iterate over constrained cases. These are
## great when we don't know how many results there are upfront.
## Save on memory and still at the speed of C++!!
p = permuteIter(5, 7, TRUE, constraintFun = "prod",
                comparisonFun = c(">=","<"),
                limitConstraints = c(3600, 4000),
                keepResults = TRUE)

## Get the next n results
t <- p@nextNIter(1048)

## N.B. keepResults = TRUE adds the 8th column
tail(t)
#>         [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] [,6] [,7] [,8]
#> [1043,]    5    4    4    3    4    1    4 3840

#> [1048,]    5    4    4    4    3    4    1 3840

## Continue iterating from where we left off
p@nextIter()
#> [1]    5    4    4    4    4    1    3 3840

p@nextIter()
#> [1]    5    4    4    4    4    3    1 3840

p@nextIter()
#> [1]    2    2    3    3    4    5    5 3600

## N.B. totalResults and totalRemaining are NA because there is no
## closed form solution for determining this.

Why RcppAlgos but no Rcpp?

Previous versions of RcppAlgos relied on Rcpp to ease the burden of exposing C++ to R. While the current version of RcppAlgos does not utilize Rcpp, it would not be possible without the myriad of excellent contributions to Rcpp.
