- <h1>rgo</h1>
- <p>rgo (<b>R</b>untime-al<b>GO</b>rithmic, pronounced as <i>are-go</i>) is a C/C++ library for runtime algorithmics on memory sequences.</p>
- <p>rgo, by default, implements it's algorithms in C. On some platforms (see section <i>Supported Platforms</i>), we implement them in assembly instead. This is to ensure that architecture features (such as SIMD) are used to make the algorithms as efficient as possible.</p>
+ <h1>zap</h1>
+ <p>A library for algorithmics.</p>
<p><i>Note: This library is still in it's early stages and is NOT anywhere near being fully optimised.</i></p>
<br />
- <h2>Supported Platforms</h2>
- <p>rgo is written in C except on some platforms where we have implemented the algorithms in assembly instead.</p>
- <p>Our implementations are only compatbile with System V-based operating systems. Support for Windows in a future release is being reflected.</p>
- <p>Currently, we have only implemented algorithms in assembly for the following architectures:</p>
- <ul>
- <li>
- <p>AMD64, including AVX;</p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>IA-32, including SSE and AVX;</p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p><i>(Planned) Aarch64, including Neon and SVE;</i></p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p><i>(Planned) Motorola 68000;</i></p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p><i>(Planned) Power ISA, including AltiVec;</i></p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p><i>(Planned) RISC-V;</i></p>
- </li>
- <li>
- <p><i>(Planned) Sparc;</i></p>
- </li>
- </ul>
- <p>They have been implemented using the GNU C extension for inline assembly, meaning a supporting compiler is required (such as Clang, GCC, and ICC).</p>
- <br />
- <h2>Building</h2>
- <p>The provided makefile has been tested to work with GNU make and BSD make and should work with other make implementations.</p>
- <p>The target <i>rgo</i> builds the static library file (located at <i>rgo/librgo.a</i>). The target <i>clean</i> removes all object files, whilst <i>purge</i> removes all object files and the static library file.</p>
+ <h2>Building and installation</h2>
+ <p>zap uses GNU Make for building.</p>
+ <p>The default target builds the static library file (located at <i>zap/libzap.a</i>). The target <i>clean</i> removes object files, whilst <i>purge</i> removes object files and the static library file.</p>
+ <p>Currently, zap doesn't support being compiled as a shared library out of the box, but the makefile could be modified to allow this.</p>
+ <p>The <i>install</i> target installs the headers to <i>$(HDRDIR)</i> and the library file to <i>$(LIBDIR)</i>.</p>
<p>Instructions for building the test program may be found on the first line of <i>test.c</i>.</p>
