sparse_prod

Dear all,

 

 

I believe there is an implementation error in the sparse_prod
implementation:

 

line 73 is                                                               m
(it1.index1 (), j) = temporary (j);

but (in my opinion) should be                    m (it1.index1 (), j) +=
temporary (j);

 

Similarly for line 132                                        m (i,
it2.index2 ()) = temporary (i);

But (in my opinion) should be                    m (i, it2.index2 ()) +=
temporary (i);

 

Using the current implementation the following two approaches give a
different result,

 

sparse_prod( matrix_left, matrix_right, matrix_result, false );

matrix_result += prod( matrix_left, matrix_right );

 

while, in fact they should give  the same result. Adapting the sparse_prod
implementation as suggested above results in both lines of code giving the
same result.

 

 

Kind regards,
