Re^2: Efficiency of implementation

4^7*4^7 * 4bytes per float =~1.07Gb

Did I do that computation incorrectly? I have 8 gb of ram. I am pretty sure 1 scalar is 4 bytes, so that should be within the acceptable range?

Sorry. I took your 4^7 to be shorthand for 4*10^7. My mistake. With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday' Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error. "Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice. The start of some sanity?	[reply]
