Detailed Description

Provides simple statistical analysis.

Simple statistical analysis package. Prominent features are:

  1. It does not use any floating point arithmetic.
  2. It handles positive and/or negative sample values. The sample value type is ACE_INT32.
  3. It uses 64 bit unsigned, but not 64 bit signed, quantities internally.
  4. It checks for overflow of internal state.
  5. It has no static variables of other than built-in types.
Example usage:

 * ACE_Stats stats;
 * for (u_int i = 0; i < n; ++i)
 * {
 * const ACE_UINT32 sample = ...;
 * stats.sample (sample);
 * }
 * stats.print_summary (3);
 * 


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ACE_INLINE ACE_Stats::ACE_Stats void   
 

Default constructor.


Member Function Documentation

ACE_INLINE void ACE_Stats::dump void    const
 

Print summary statistics to stdout.

ACE_INLINE ACE_INT32 ACE_Stats::max_value void    const
 

Value of the maximum sample provided so far.

void ACE_Stats::mean ACE_Stats_Value   mean,
const ACE_UINT32    scale_factor = 1
 

Access the mean of all samples provided so far. The fractional part is to the specified number of digits. E.g., 3 fractional digits specifies that the fractional part is in thousandths.

ACE_INLINE ACE_INT32 ACE_Stats::min_value void    const
 

Value of the minimum sample provided so far.

int ACE_Stats::print_summary const u_int    precision,
const ACE_UINT32    scale_factor = 1,
FILE *    = stdout
const
 

Print summary statistics. If scale_factor is not 1, then the results are divided by it, i.e., each of the samples is scaled down by it. If internal overflow is reached with the specified scale factor, it successively tries to reduce it. Returns -1 if there is overflow even with a 0 scale factor.

void ACE_Stats::quotient const ACE_Stats_Value   dividend,
const ACE_UINT32    divisor,
ACE_Stats_Value   quotient
[static]
 

Utility division function, for ACE_Stats_Value dividend.

void ACE_Stats::quotient const ACE_UINT64    dividend,
const ACE_UINT32    divisor,
ACE_Stats_Value   quotient
[static]
 

Utility division function, for ACE_UINT64 dividend.

void ACE_Stats::reset void   
 

Initialize internal state.

int ACE_Stats::sample const ACE_INT32    value
 

Provide a new sample. Returns 0 on success, -1 if it fails due to running out of memory, or to rolling over of the sample count.

ACE_INLINE ACE_UINT32 ACE_Stats::samples void    const
 

Access the number of samples provided so far.

void ACE_Stats::square_root const ACE_UINT64    n,
ACE_Stats_Value   square_root
[static]
 

Sqrt function, which uses an oversimplified version of Newton's method. It's not fast, but it doesn't require floating point support.

int ACE_Stats::std_dev ACE_Stats_Value   std_dev,
const ACE_UINT32    scale_factor = 1
 

Access the standard deviation, whole and fractional parts. See description of <mean> method for argument descriptions.


Member Data Documentation

Maximum sample value.

ACE_INT32 ACE_Stats::min_ [private]
 

Minimum sample value.

ACE_UINT32 ACE_Stats::number_of_samples_ [private]
 

Number of samples.

u_int ACE_Stats::overflow_ [private]
 

Internal indication of whether there has been overflow. Contains the errno corresponding to the cause of overflow.
