Apply function to all Eigen matrix element
vsoftco's answer is very general and is good for custom functions. However, there is a simpler way for many of the commonly used functions. Adapting his example we can use array
s and it looks like this:
#include <iostream>
#include <Eigen/Core>
int main()
{
Eigen::MatrixXd m(2, 2);
m << 0, 1, 2, 3;
std::cout << m << "\nbecomes:\n";
std::cout << m.array().exp() << std::endl;
return 0;
}
Yes, use the Eigen::MatrixBase<>::unaryExpr()
member function. Example:
#include <cmath>
#include <iostream>
#include <Eigen/Core>
double Exp(double x) // the functor we want to apply
{
return std::exp(x);
}
int main()
{
Eigen::MatrixXd m(2, 2);
m << 0, 1, 2, 3;
std::cout << m << std::endl << "becomes: ";
std::cout << std::endl << m.unaryExpr(&Exp) << std::endl;
}
