-Will,
-
-There may be a subtle bug in exectuable code produced by your
-compiler. I am sending you an example program that displays wierd
-behaviour when compiled using ghc, but not when compiled using hbc.
-The results have been check by hand against a commercial C-based
-signal processing tool, and the hbc numbers agree (within numercial
-precision limitations) to the commerical package. Most of the ghc
-numbers agree too, but some are off in a systematic way.
-
-NOTE: This program uses the Native module, so perhaps the problem lies
-there; I don't know.
-
-
-The package contains the following:
-
-1) a module LPA.lhs
-
-2) a main program Main.lhs
-
-3) a Makefile, set up for ghc 0.19 and hbc (you can use 0.999.5 if you
-want)
-
-4) an example speech file
-
-
-To compile, edit the Makefile and comment/uncomment the definitions
-for which compiler you want to use; then type make.
-
-Run the program first for hbc:
-
- % lpa speech speech.cep.hbc
-
-Then ``make clean'', edit the Makefile, remake and run for ghc:
-
- % lpa speech speech.cep.ghc
-
-Now look at the first 10 lines of each ``cep'' file using od:
-
- % od -fv speech.cep.hbc | head -10
-
- % od -fv speech.cep.ghc | head -10
-
-Notice that the numbers pretty much agree, except for the 1st, the
-18th, the 35th, etc.
-
-You see, the program analyzes frames of speech 100 times per second.
-For each analysis frame, it dumps 17 floating point numbers. Your
-program disagrees with the hbc program about the FIRST coordinate of
-each of these vectors. I don't understand how this can happen.
-
-I'm writing an applications paper for JFP, but I can't include a
-comparison to your compiler if it produces bad numbers. So... I know
-your busy, but could you look at this soon?
-
-Good luck!!
