51 // <synopsis>
52 // This class forms a function of the form
53 // f(x<sub>0</sub>,x<sub>1</sub>,..,x<sub>m-1</sub>) =
54 // p<sub>0</sub>*x<sub>0</sub> + p<sub>1</sub>*x<sub>1</sub> + ...
55 // + p<sub>m-1</sub>*x<sub>m-1</sub>,
56 // where p<sub>i</sub> are coefficients (parameters) and x<sub>i</sub>
57 // are independent arguments.
58 //
59 // f(x<sub>0</sub>,x<sub>1</sub>,..,x<sub>m-1</sub>) represents a hyper plane
60 // of dimension <src>m</src>.
61 //
62 // Since the <src>HyperPlane</src> is a <src>Function</src>, the derivatives
63 // can be obtained as well.
64 //
65 // The parameter interface (see
66 // <linkto class="FunctionParam">FunctionParam</linkto> class),
67 // is used to provide an interface to the
68 // <linkto module="Fitting">Fitting</linkto> classes.
69 //
70 // This class is in general used implicitly by the <src>HyperPlane</src>
71 // class only.
72 // </synopsis>
73 //
74 // <example>
75 // <srcblock>
76 // // form the hyper plane function of this form:
77 // // 6*x0 + 2*x3
78 // HyperPlane<Double> hyper(4); // 4-dim hyperplane
79 // hyper.parameters()[0] = 6;
80 // hyper.parameters()[3] = 2;
81 // // Evaluate at x0=5, x3=7
82 // Vector<Double> x(4);
83 // x=0; x[0]=5; x[3]=7;
84 // cout << "Hypervalue: " << hyper(x) << endl;
85 // Hypervalue: 44
86 // </srcblock>
87 // </example>
88 
89 // <templating arg=T>
90 // <li> T should have standard numerical operators and exp() function. Current
91 // implementation only tested for real types (and their AutoDiffs).
92 // </templating>
93 
94 // <thrown>
95 // <li> Assertion in debug mode if attempt is made to set a negative width
96 // <li> AipsError if incorrect parameter number specified.
97 // </thrown>
98 
99 // <motivation>
100 // This class was created to facilitate linear constraint functions
101 // for the use of least-squares fits.
