Description

Get the value of X at a vertical asymptote.

Syntax

int ocmath_xatasymt( UINT nSize, const double * vx, const double * vy, double * dXAsympt )

Parameters

nSize: [input] size of vx, vy
vx: [input] it contains curve's X coordinate's datas, should be rigid increasing
vy: [input] it contains curve's Y coordinate's datas
dXAsympt: [output] the value of X at a vertical asymtote

Return

Return OE_NOERROR if success.

Examples

    int nRet = ocmath_xatasymt(vx.GetSize(), vx, vy, &dXAtasymt);
    if(nRet != OE_NOERROR)
    {
      printf("Error in computing the horizontal asymptote of X\n.")

    printf("The value of X at the vertical asymptote of Y = %f\n", dXAtasymt);
}

Remark

The function used for fitting function parameter initialization.

Get the value of X at a vertical asymptote. If the asymptote has two branches then X is defined as X = (xatymax+xatymin)/2 and if the asymptote has a single branch then X is defined as either xatymax or xatymin depending on where the reciprocal of the slope of the curve is closest to zero.
