You can install single and long-double precision versions of FFTW,
which replace <code>double</code> with <code>float</code> and <code>long double</code>,
respectively (see <a href="Installation-and-Customization.html#Installation-and-Customization">Installation and Customization</a>). To use these
interfaces, you:
<ul>
<li>Link to the single/long-double libraries; on Unix, <code>-lfftw3f</code> or
<code>-lfftw3l</code> instead of (or in addition to) <code>-lfftw3</code>. (You
can link to the different-precision libraries simultaneously.)
<li>Include the <em>same</em> <code><fftw3.h></code> header file.
<li>Replace all lowercase instances of ‘<samp><span class="samp">fftw_</span></samp>’ with ‘<samp><span class="samp">fftwf_</span></samp>’ or
<code>fftwl_</code> for single or long-double precision, respectively.
(<code>fftw_complex</code> becomes <code>fftwf_complex</code>, <code>fftw_execute</code>
becomes <code>fftwf_execute</code>, etcetera.)
<li>Uppercase names, i.e. names beginning with ‘<samp><span class="samp">FFTW_</span></samp>’, remain the
same.
<li>Replace <code>double</code> with <code>float</code> or <code>long double</code> for
subroutine parameters.
</ul>
<p>Depending upon your compiler and/or hardware, <code>long double</code> may not
be any more precise than <code>double</code> (or may not be supported at all,
although it is standard in C99).
