Discretization for the other series types is not useless. For sparse, for example, it enforces that samples may only exist at offsets that are a multiple of the discretization.
Does this apply to floating point series as well? If so, then it makes the discretized floating point case behave similarly to the integer offset case, i.e. the continuous range run is / can be reduced to a discrete set of points. If so, great.
Sorry, no. I was referring to series types with integral offsets, which are by their nature discrete. Floating point offsets are not discrete. For representing discrete data, a series with integral offsets is thee way to go, perhaps with an interpolating facade for floating point indexed access. -- Eric Niebler Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com The Astoria Seminar ==> http://www.astoriaseminar.com
