计算幂函数的几种方法

引言

我们知道,自然对数的底 e 定义为以下极限值:

e

这个公式很适合于对幂函数的计算进行一些测试,得到的结果是 e 的近似值,不用担心当 n 很大时计算结果会溢出。

测试程序

下面就是 Tester.cs:

复制代码
 1 using System; 2 using System.Numerics; 3 using System.Diagnostics; 4 using Skyiv.Extensions; 5  6 namespace Skyiv.Test 7 { 8   sealed class Tester 9   {10     string Standard(long n)11     { // n == 10^m12       if (n > 100000) return "Skip";13       var s = BigInteger.Pow(n + 1, (int)n).ToString();14       s = s.Substring(0, Math.Min(31, s.Length));15       return s[0] + "." + s.Substring(1);16     }17     18     string Direct(long n)19     {20       if (n > 1000000000) return "Skip";21       var y = 1m;22       for (var x = 1 + 1m / n; n > 0; n--) y *= x;23       return y.ToString();24     }25     26     string Binary(long n)27     {28       var y = 1m;29       for (var x = 1 + 1m / n; n != 0; x *= x, n >>= 1)30         if ((n & 1) != 0) y *= x;31       return y.ToString();32     }33     34     string ExpLog(long n)35     {36       return (1 + 1m / n).Pow(n).ToString();37     }38     39     void Out(string name, Func<long, string> func, long n)40     {41       var timer = Stopwatch.StartNew();42       var y = func(n);43       timer.Stop();44       Console.WriteLine("{0,-32} {1} {2}", y, timer.Elapsed, name);45     }46     47     void Run(int max)48     {49       for (var m = 0; m <= max; m++)50       {51         var n = (long)Math.Pow(10, m);52         Console.WriteLine(string.Format("- {0:D2}:{1:N0} ", m, n).PadRight(58, '-'));53         Out("Standard", Standard, n);54         Out("Direct", Direct, n);55         Out("Binary", Binary, n);56         Out("ExpLog", ExpLog, n);57       }58     }59   60     static void Main()61     {62       new Tester().Run(18);63     }64   }65 }
复制代码

这个程序使用四种方法来计算幂函数:

  1. 第 10 至 16 行的 Standard 方法使用 BigInteger.Pow 方法来计算幂函数。这个计算结果(在有效数字范围内)是准确值,作为其他方法的标准。
  2. 第 18 至 24 行的 Direct 方法直接将 x 乘上 n 遍来计算幂函数,是最没技术含量的暴力方法。时间复杂度是 O(N)。
  3. 第 26 至 32 行的 Binary 方法将 n 视为二进制数,根据其为 1 的位来计算幂函数。这是经典的算法,时间复杂度是 O(logN)。FCL 的 BigInteger.Pow 方法也是使用这个算法。
  4. 第 34 至 37 行的 ExpLog 方法使用 decimal 的扩展方法 Pow 来计算幂函数,是通过对数函数和指数函数来计算的:an。理论上说,时间复杂度是 O(1)。

decimal 的扩展方法

下面就是 DecimalExtensions.cs:

在上述结果中:

  1. 最后一行是 e 的近似值,是使用 Linux 操作系统的高精度计算器 bc 计算的,请见参考资料[4]。
  2. 使用 BigInteger.Pow 计算出来的是准确值。在 05:100,000 这一组中,计算结果达 500,001 个十进制数字。当 n 达到 106 以后,由于计算量太大,已经无法在合理的时间内计算准确值了。
  3. 使用 Direct 计算最慢(除 Standard 外,因为计算量不同)。当 n 达到 1010 以后,由于费时太多,已经不使用 Direct 方法计算了。
  4. 使用 Binary 计算的速度非常快,其精度和 Direct 差不多。这两者答案不同说明 decimal 的乘法不满足结合律。
  5. 使用 ExpLog 计算的速度理论上是最快的,实际的速度和 ExpLog 差不多,因为 n 还不够大。其精度在 n 不是很大时稍差。
  6. 当 n 达到 1014 以后,ExpLog 计算出来的值在 29 个有效数字范围内已经等于 e 值,不再变化了。
  7. 当 n 达到 1014 以后,由于舍入误差的累计,Binary 计算出来的值大约只有 14 个有效数字是可信的,再增大 n 值也不能更逼近 e 值了。也就是说,在逼近 e 值的意义上说,计算结果在有效数字范围内不再变化了。
  8. 要计算的幂函数是增函数,请注意观察上述运行结果是如何体现这一点的。
