C++ program creating array the uses the dot product?
normalized dot product
// Matches the Signal with the Pattern Signal using the "dot product"
// of Signal and Pattern divided by the square root of the energy of each.
// According to the Cauchy-Schwartz inequality, the result will be
// between -1 and +1; +1.0 where identical, near 0.0 where unalike and
// -1.0 when the object Signal is the negative of the pattern Signal.
//
// The Pattern must be no longer than the Signal: if it is, an error
// value of -2.0 is returned immediately. If Signal is longer than
// Pattern, then the appropriate "head" of Signal is used. Thus the
// signal vector operation is dot(Pattern[0,L-1], Signal[0,L-1]).
//
// The application, or client, can scan the Pattern along the Signal
// in a loop to create an output signal. That operation is called
// normalized cross correlation.
// Restrict the dot product to the subsignal of amplitudes from
// S[LO]..S[HI] and otherwise behave as the above function.
// Useful for client to search signal object for a matching pattern,
// such as finding the next EKG (heart wave) cycle from the current one.
I am confused what this question is asking, any help understanding it would be awesome. We have a pre set up array with quantitys inside it.
double Signal::normalizedDotProduct (const Signal& Pattern) const
{
?????
}
