Title :
Tensor contraction in C++
Abstract :
In my last column (see ibid., January/February 2001), I talked about a notational device for matrix algebra called tensor diagrams. This time I write some C++ code to symbolically evaluate these quantities. This gives me a chance to play with some as yet untried features in the C++ standard library, such as strings and standard template library (STL) container classes
