Detailed Description

template<>
class ecl::PascalsTriangle< 5 >

Holds the coefficients of pascal's triangle up to n = 5.

Stores the coefficients of all diagonals up until row 5 - i.e. all coefficients up to and including those for (x+y)^0 to (x+y)^5. This is used fairly often, so defined here to avoid the slow calculation of the general case.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ecl::PascalsTriangle< 5 >::PascalsTriangle

(

)

Default constructor.

This constructor speeds things up by initialising the triangle internally with the coefficients directly.

Member Function Documentation

PascalsTriangle< 5 >::const_iterator ecl::PascalsTriangle< 5 >::begin

(

unsigned int

index = 0

)

const

Iterator generator for diagonals of pascals triangle [begin].

Return a const iterator pointing to the first element of the specified diagonal.

Parameters:

index

: the diagonal to be iterated.

Returns:

const_iterator : constant iterator pointing pointing to the first element of the specified diagonal/row.

Definition at line 60 of file pascals_triangle.cpp.

PascalsTriangle< 5 >::const_iterator ecl::PascalsTriangle< 5 >::end

(

unsigned int

index = 0

)

const

Iterator generator for diagonals of pascals triangle [begin].

Return a const iterator just past the last element of the specified diagonal.

Parameters:

index

: the diagonal to be iterated.

Returns:

const_iterator : constant iterator pointing just beyond the last of the specified diagonal/row.
