I'm writing a numerical methods library, and I already found a use for
you macro. Here's the old way:
(defn solve
[f & params]
(let [param-map (merge
{:start 1
:target 0
:diff-method :forward
:iter-method :newton
:epsilon 0.00000001
:max-iters 100}
(apply hash-map params))
diff-method (param-map :diff-method)
iter-method (param-map :iter-method)
start (param-map :start)
target (param-map :target)
max-iters (param-map :max-iters)
epsilon (param-map :epsilon)
f-point #(- (f %) target)
iter-methods {:newton (fn[x]
(- x (/ (f-point x) ((f-prime f-
point :diff-method diff-method) x))))}
iterator (iter-methods iter-method)]
(loop [x start
iter-count 0]
(let [next-x (iterator x)]
(cond
(< (java.lang.Math/abs (- (f-point x) (f-point next-x)))
epsilon) next-x
(> iter-count max-iters) (do
(println "Maximum number of
iterations reached")
nil)
true (recur next-x (inc iter-count)))))))
And here's the new way with your macro
(defnk solve-key
[f
:start 1
:target 0
:diff-method :forward
:iter-method :newton
:epsilon 0.00000001
:max-iters 100]
(let [f-point #(- (f %) target)
iter-methods {:newton (fn[x]
(- x
(/ (f-point x)
((f-prime f-point :diff-method
diff-method) x))))}
iterator (iter-methods iter-method)]
(loop [x start
iter-count 0]
(let [next-x (iterator x)]
(cond
(< (java.lang.Math/abs (- (f-point x) (f-point next-x)))
epsilon) next-x
(> iter-count max-iters) (do
(println "Maximum number of iterations
reached")
nil)
true (recur next-x (inc iter-count)))))))
So it's paying off already!
