Description:
In this tutorial, we briefly go through the main functionalities of the library SYNAPS. We first start with the main concepts, which underly the design of the library. Next, we show how to construct a first executable, using template structures from the standard library. The following step is devoted to linear algebra functions and the connection to the LAPACK library. Then we describe how to manipulate polynomials in one ore several variables, with different internal representation, including the Bernstein basis representation. In the next step, we describe how to use univariate and multivariate solvers. Finally, we illustrate the construction and manipulation of parameterized and implicit curves and surfaces. For each of these steps, we give code examples, that the reader can compile and run and we also propose exercises.
