CIGAL Reference Manual, Chapter 1 (Topics): philosophy

Philosophy -- CIGAL design

The basic philosophy embedded within CIGAL is flexibility:

  • data variables can be accessed directly from any memory storage device
  • data items can be a wide range of data types
  • data variables can be of any size
  • all or part of any variable can be used for almost any operation
  • if hardware isn't available for an operation, software emulates it
  • if a predefined command isn't available for an operation, write a macro
