Version: 1.0.0_devel (using KDE 3.3.0, compiled sources) Compiler: gcc version 3.3.2 OS: SunOS (sun4u) release 5.8 In the (long and growing) "I need more operators for equations" series, would it be possible to add INTEG() and DERIV() operators ? - INTEG could have two different syntaxes: INTEG(Vec1), which would just compute the cumulative sum of all values, and INTEG(Vec1,Vec2) which would integrate i.e. add at each step Vec1(n)*(Vec2(n) - Vec2(n-1)) - DERIV in more or less the same fashion.
At this point, No. Equations operate value by value, and do not know about either the past or the future. We are talking about a more general approach, however.... but this will require some thought and re-design.

It sounds as if INTEG and DERIV should be plugins.
As Andrew says, INTEG() and DERIV() should be filter plugins. The wishlist item, it seems to me, should be changed to 'implement filters in equations' I will close this bug, and re-open one to this effect.
CVS commit by staikos: preliminary support for plugin calling from equations. Has several limitations and missing code: 1) Updates FAR too often making it rather unusable 2) Doesn't handle localdata plugins 3) Doesn't work with "x" 4) Crashes Kst if the inputs aren't valid 5) Doesn't handle plugin errors 6) Data object dependency chain isn't updated CCBUG: 89688 A kstmath.h 1.1 [GPL (v2+)] M +95 -3 enodes.cpp 1.19 M +1 -0 enodes.h 1.14 M +2 -0 kstdebug.cpp 1.13 M +1 -37 kstvector.cpp 1.87
CVS commit by staikos: Plugins from equations are now fully functional except for using "x", which needs some thought before implementing, and is not really critical. usage: plugin(name, inputs....) FEATURE: 89688 M +107 -58 enodes.cpp 1.25 M +5 -0 enodes.h 1.16 M +2 -3 kstequation.cpp 1.9
As we said, integ() and deriv() can be done as plugins. Now you can call them from equations, so this should solve your problems once you write your plugins. :)
